Starkey Service Award at the 14th annual recognition banquet at the Holiday Inn in Normal Wednesday night (3/30).  The banquet recognized members of the University community for their work throughout the year and included a special tribute to employees who celebrated milestone anniversaries in five-year increments.  The Starkey award was established in 2001 and is named in honor of the late Max Starkey, IWU class of 1957 and university comptroller from 1957-1996. It is presented to a member of the administrative, technical, support, security or physical plant staffs nominated by his or her peers for extraordinary service. Johnson joined the University in 1983 as a custodian and was promoted to mechanic and then assistant maintenance foreman before being elevated to his current position in 1991. In addition to Johnson, three retiring employees were recognized: Dolores Helm, director of the Arnold Health Service; Elizabeth Hornbrook, office coordinator for Modern and Classical Literature and Language and Hispanic Studies; and Agnes Huonker, office coordinator in admissions.
