About the Week - April 14-18, 2025
National Student Employee Appreciation Week is observed annually, typically in the second full week of April, as an opportunity to express extra gratitude for the impact student employees have on campuses nationwide.
The Office of Human Resources has collaborated with over a dozen departments to plan events, to coordinate a cross-departmental social media campaign, to offer scholarships throughout the week, and more, and we hope you will join us in showing your appreciation for UHD's determined and dedicated student employees!
Getting Involved
Here are a few ways you and your department can get involved with the celebrations for the week:
- Nominate a Student for a Scholarship

work and dedication with this well-deserved opportunity.
