Ginny Redmond, director of UAF's Student Support Services, was one of four university system staff members recognized by the UA Board of Regents with Staff Make Students Count awards.

During their two-day meeting in Fairbanks earlier this month, regents also honored Wayne “Woody” Woodgate of UAA's Prince William Sound College, Auguste “Augie” Stiehr of UAS' Learning Center and Josh Watts of UA's Office of Information Technology.

The Staff Make Students Count awards are presented annually to staff across the UA system who go above and beyond daily to serve students.

Redmond has worked for the SSS program since 2007. She is a lifelong Alaskan and UAF graduate. After earning a bachelor's degree in foreign languages (German and Spanish) with a minor in linguistics, she finished a master's in applied linguistics. In her free time, she likes gardening, spending time outdoors, raising chickens and being with family.
