Staff Appreciation

The Staff Assembly exists to contribute to the success of Gonzaga University, to the growth and welfare of its staff employees, and to the promotion of a positive and supportive work environment. In order to accomplish this, the Staff Assembly has initiated several 'morale' boosters.

Staff Appreciation Ice Cream Socials

In order to acknowledge and thank all of our co-workers, the Staff Assembly, at times, hosts ice cream socials.  Weather permitting, we may host the social outside.  These socials will take place throughout campus in different locations each time.  So look for more information for the specific time and place for these afternoon socials. 

The Staff Assembly also recognizes each employees anniversary during their anniversary month. Gifts are given based on the years of service. Those milestone anniversaries, such as the 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 year, receive extra special tokens of thanks.

Staff/Faculty Family Picnic

Since the summer of 2002, the Staff Assembly has planned a Staff/Faculty Family Picnic during the summer whereby staff and faculty, along with their families, can come together one night in July/August and enjoy each other's company while having some fun. In the past we have had a cowboy theme, a hawaiian theme, and a carnival theme. The picnic is catered and there are always lots of activities for all ages of children and adults to get involved and have fun. If you would be interested in helping plan this wonderful event, please send us an email. Planning usually starts around March-April. Visit our Events page for updated info.
