Meg Cullen-Brown Magis Award for February

The Staff Senate would like to thank all staff members who took the time to recognize and share their colleagues' accomplishments, sense of community, and dedication to excellence. The Meg Cullen Brown Magis Award would not exist without our caring community!

THE MEG CULLEN-BROWN MAGIS AWARD WINNER for February 2026 is: 
Eric Gatto – Financial Aid

How long have you worked at the University? I have been here a little over two years now, starting in January of 2024.

What is your title? Assistant Director of Financial Aid.

What do you like best about your job? Being able to help our students and families.

What do you like to do for fun? I love to golf and have a newborn daughter who I am trying to keep up with.

 
We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate and celebrate the good work that Eric does on a daily basis. We hope you will join us in personally congratulating Eric and all our nominees. Eric will receive a complimentary food donation at our fabulous University food service outlets AND a reserved parking space in the DeNaples Parking Pavilion for February.

We congratulate Eric and all the wonderful nominees for being recognized as “Magis” employees!
