This informal recognition can be used to acknowledge contributions of individuals, teams and work groups. The types of contributions that might be recognized are:
Examples of recognition
- Staying late to help someone prepare a presentation for the next day
- Volunteering to cover for a co-worker who is out sick or on leave
- Going out of your way to help boost morale or create a positive, inclusive work environment
- Exceeding expectations for a goal or milestone in a long-term collaborative project
- Overcoming obstacles to complete the job

How the Awesome Award works
- Staff may award others in- or outside their department as long as both individuals are within the Division of Academic Affairs.
- A short form must be completed to document the recognition (supervisor's signature of awardee is required) and receive the recognition gift. Completed forms are submitted to the Provost's office.
- All classified, hourly, and administrative employees within the division are eligible to participate in the program.
- The award given will be the "Awesome. It's what I do!" cup, certificate or thank you postcard signed by Provost Austin O. Agho.
- All individuals receiving this will also be recognized during division-wide events.
The Provost recognizes that administrative support staff and faculty administrators make it possible for the work of the colleges and administrative units to be of high quality. A commitment to service excellence requires that truly exceptional staff and administrators are recognized, celebrated, and rewarded for their contributions to the Division of Academic Affairs and the University.
The Provost's Crown Award is designed to recognize two exceptional individuals each year who have made a significant impact in Academic Affairs through outstanding dedication and accomplishments; contributing to and demonstrating a commitment to Old Dominion's core mission and values; and exceptional service to the university community.
One faculty professional and one administrative support staff will be honored at the annual Academic Affairs Holiday Social in December. Each will receive a trophy or plaque, as well as an appropriate monetary award.
