Kudos to Amaltuas Taye, Senior Residential Services Manager of Harnwell College House and the 2025 recipient of the Ann Webster New Professional Award from the Mid-Atlantic Association of College and University Housing Officers (MACUHO). 

A valued member of Residential & Hospitality Services since 2024, Amaltuas was recognized for meaningful institutional and regional contributions to the field of housing and residence life. 

MACUHO’s Ann Webster award honors professionals with fewer than four years of experience who have made an impact over the past year.

The University’s annual service recognition program celebrates long-term commitment to the University, honoring full- and part-time faculty and staff with 10 or more years of service. Business Services is pleased to recognize the following 27 staff members who met a service milestone in 2025. Together, they collectively represent 670 years of service to the University.
