Stephan P. Nelson, supervisory senior project manager with Facilities Management, Facilities Planning and Construction, was awarded the Samuel R. Crockett Award for his "significant efforts toward strengthening the relationship between the University of Virginia and the College."
In making the presentation at the May 22 U.Va. Board of Visitors meeting, Simeon Ewing, vice chancellor for finance and government relations at the College at Wise, described Stephan as a perfect choice for the award in 2012.
The vice chancellor said Stephan has served as a tireless advocate for improving the quality of the College of Wise – work that included oversight of more than 20 projects at the College since 1996.
The award was first presented by Clinch Valley College in 1995, and is named for Samuel R. Crockett Jr., who in 1954 was the University's extension division representative in Southwest Virginia. Crockett was instrumental in early efforts to establish a branch campus in Wise.
Nelson told board members that he appreciated the honor, and was proud to play a role in expanding College facilities over the years into something "everyone can enjoy." - McGregor McCance, U.Va. Office of Public Affairs
