Years of Service Award
What is the Years of Service Award?
Since 1991, Texas A&M University and The Association
of Former Students have sponsored the Years of Service Award.
It recognizes the significant years of service of employees
to the University who had reached 25 or more years of service.
With the generous financial support of The Association of Former
Students, the award was expanded in 1992 to recognize employees
with service ranging from 20 to 50 years of service. The eligibility
period is based on calendar year (January - December). The
Human Resources Management Services Department administers the award program on behalf
of the Office of the President.
Who is eligible for the award?
The total years of service may include an employee’s
current Texas A&M University service, plus any prior Texas A&M service.
Current employees budgeted for a minimum of 50% time with Texas
A&M University and who receive some portion of their salary
funded by Texas A&M are eligible for recognition. Employees who are transferred
from one funding source to another for budgetary reasons will be
eligible if a portion of their funding during the calendar year
was from Texas A&M University.
How will recipients be recognized?
Recipients of the award are given a
lapel pin with the aTm logo and the following stones:
- 20 years- four garnets;
- 25 years- one diamond;
- 30 years- one diamond and one garnet;
- 35 years- one diamond and two garnets;
- 40 years- one diamond and three garnets;
- 45 years- one diamond and four garnets; and
- 50 years- two diamonds.
