I am pleased to have the opportunity to tell the campus community about the outstanding contributions of Sue Knoche to the community and to librarianship. Sue has worked with the American Cancer Society (ACS) Carter County Relay for Life since 2006. She was Mission Delivery Chair from 2008-10. In this capacity she researched information about cancer research and new therapies, which she presented to the community. She is Recognitions Chair for 2011/2012. Since 2008 she has also worked with the Cancer Action Network (CAN); a grass roots advocacy program to present statistics or legislative ideas on behalf of the ACS-CAN organizations. She entered the ACS Inner-Beauty Pageant in 2011 and was top winner in the Expression category. She was recognized in 2011 by the Museum at Mountain Home for more than 17 years of volunteer services. Sue is also very active in local and regional library associations. Beginning in July 2012, she will become the Tennessee Library Association (TLA) representative to the Southeastern Library Association – the first library staff person to hold that position. In May of 2011 she was a member of a TLA delegation to Legislative Day in Washington D.C. and visited Senators Alexander and Corker and the Tennessee members of the House of Representatives to bring library issues to their attention. Sue also contributes a regular column for "Associates," which is an international online publication for library workers. |

Each month on the homepage of the Human Resources web site we feature an employee or group of employees who have displayed outstanding service to the university and/or our surrounding community. These are our employees who probably would not receive local media attention but deserve acclaim for the good work they perform.

Performed a noteworthy single act
A human interest story
Job performance above and beyond the call of duty
Exhibits a positive attitude and image of the university
Outstanding support or attendance of university programs and events
Outstanding service through involvement in civic organizations and/or through volunteerism

If you would like, you may also include an interesting personal story or information that would enhance the employees recognition
Please return the Employee Recognition Program Form with approval signatures through campus mail (available on the Human Resources Forms webpage under Miscellaneous Forms) to the Office of Human Resource, Box 70564.
