Shout Outs

Welcome to the Eastern Illinois University Shout Out Page. The Staff Senate has established this page to foster the morale of EIU employees and cultivate a positive campus atmosphere. Shout Outs serve as public expressions of gratitude and recognition, allowing us to acknowledge the exceptional efforts of individuals, departments, and others on a daily basis.

We encourage you to utilize the Shout Out submission form to appreciate and commend your colleagues. To create a Shout Out, simply click on the 'Make a Shout Out' tab and log in. Once your Shout Out is submitted, a moderator will review it and proudly display your submission on the Shout Out page.

The Staff Senate at Eastern Illinois University is currently rewarding eligible employees who receive a Shout Out with one $10 EIU Food Court gift card per fiscal year (effective July 1, 2024).

Eligible EIU employees who received a $10 EIU Food Court gift card with a Shout Out must redeem those cards by the expiration date of May 31, 2025. Enjoy up to $10 off your next one-time purchase at the University Food Court; card must be surrendered during time of purchase.

This page is dedicated to the memory of UPD Officer Harold Harris.

Mrs. Huddleston has kept our building clean, shining, and safe throughout this past year of pandemic crisis. During the winter she did all the cleaning and also managed to shovel the snow! Thank you Vicki.

Ross did a fantastic job finishing up some work in the Student Insurance Office. We appreciate the help! Thank you!

Dawn Zachow got a shoutout from Lynn Griesemer! Mar 18, 2021

I had a major issue with a student's EWP scores. They were not documented correctly in parts of Banner, which was causing her "writes with distinction" to not show up on her transcript. Dawn was able to figure out what was happening and referred this issue to John Janosik. Between the two of them, the issue was resolved and the student is very happy! Thank you for your help, Dawn!

John Janosik got a shoutout from Lynn Griesemer! Mar 18, 2021

A student's EWP scores were not showing up correctly in Banner and, therefore, were incorrect on her transcript. She qualified for "writes with distinction" and was really wanting that to be documented. John was extremely helpful and the issue was taken care of. The student was very appreciative and acknowledged the work that John had done. Thank you so much!!

Sarah Daugherty got a shoutout from Mark Hudson! Feb 8, 2021

Sarah is serving on the COVID transport team and has done way more than her fair share of transports this whole semester, just this past weekend she did at least 6 I lost count).  She always has a cheerful disposition and shows real care for our residents going thru this challenging time.  Even though she is at home with her family or at the grocery store when the calls come, has to return to campus, access the van and warm it us for the resident - she always makes you feel like "it is no big deal".  Thanks Sarah!

Sarah Daugherty got a shoutout! Feb 2, 2021
