Join us Friday, January 24 at 2:30 pm in the 2nd floor lounge of the Kelley Building to celebrate the first recipients of the Katherine Schultz Research Recognition Awards. Dr. Schultz, who served as UPEI's first Vice-President Research, established these awards to honour UPEI faculty, staff, and volunteers who play a critical role in supporting research endeavours. The research success of an institution rests fundamentally on the excellence, dedication, and insights of its researchers and their teams of collaborators, trainees, students, and technicians. However, their success also rests on the work of those who might be labelled the “unsung heroes” of the research enterprise – that is, those whose work behind the scenes make it all possible. Without the dedication, professionalism, and commitment of these individuals, our researchers and their research endeavours would be seriously constrained. Please join us for the awards; a small reception will follow. For more information, contact Dave Atkinson at 620-5117, datkinson@upei.ca.

Please create a work order with Facilities Management https://www.myschoolbuilding.com to arrange for pickup of any surplus of computer equipment departments may have for disposal. Do not send this equipment directly to ITSS. Contact 566-0552 for any questions you may have.

Please be advised that the Government of Canada is once again sponsoring the Canada Summer Jobs program designed to help employers create summer job opportunities for students. Canada Summer Jobs provides funding to not-for-profit organizations, public-sector employers, and small businesses to create summer job opportunities for young people aged 15 to 30 years who are full-time students intending to return to their studies in the next school year. Public and private-sector employers are eligible for a wage subsidy of up to 50% of the provincial/territorial adult minimum hourly wage – in PEI the minimum wage is $10.00 an hour. For additional information and application information for this program please refer to: http://www.servicecanada.gc.ca/eng/epb/yi/yep/programs/scpp.shtml The closing date for applications is January 31, 2014. For additional information please contact Gillian Profitt, Human Resources, 0515
