Lindsey Andino, Mathias Eriksen and Justin Vargas, seniors at The University of Texas at Tyler, were each awarded a 2023 Spirit Award in recognition of outstanding service as UT Tyler student employees.
Winners must demonstrate a genuine respect of university traditions and a commitment to continue those traditions, display a consistent spirit of teamwork and cooperation, and promote the university in a positive light.
Andino, a marketing major, served the Office of Marketing and Communications. Eriksen, also a marketing major, served the Department of Management and Marketing. Vargas, a psychology major, served the Office of Academic Success.
The students, all of Tyler, will graduate with UT Tyler bachelor’s degrees this spring and were recognized earlier this month during the annual student employee luncheon. Prior to the luncheon, student employee supervisors nominated their student employees for either a Leadership, Rising Star or Spirit Award.
