Heroes among the Berkeley staff

9 November 2005

Below is a complete list of all staff members slated to receive letters from the Chancellor after students cited them for everyday heroism. (Some letters are still in the process of being sent out; GSI and faculty heroes will be included in future lists.) Want to know more about how these people went "above and beyond" the call of duty? Check the the Daily Hero feature, debuting on the NewsCenter home page Monday, Nov. 14, which every weekday will feature a different hero along with an excerpt from students' responses.

Corrections to this list should be e-mailed to newscenter@berkeley.edu.
