A Christmas Eve of Gratitude: Honoring AU’s Staff of the Year 2025

A defining moment of the evening was the Staff of the Year Awards 2025 Presentation, which recognized nine colleagues whose dedication and professionalism quietly sustain the university’s daily life. Their contributions, often behind the scenes, form the steady foundation upon which teaching, learning, and service continue to thrive. As each name was announced, warm applause filled the hall, signaling shared respect for work that is essential, if not always visible.

This year’s honorees represented a wide range of academic, administrative, and operational units across the university. They were Mrs. Chansri Pholmeeboon, Mr. Seksan Khanruechai, Ms. Jirawadee Pisalwatcharin,Ms. Nutsara Mahamudsab, Mr. Auychai Boonban, Ms. Tippawan Timpratuang, and Ms. Ritima Rerkwandee.

Completing the group were Mr. Trin Siwatharakon and Ms. Choosri Panachamnong. Together, the nine honorees reflected a shared belief at the core of AU’s culture: that excellence is built through consistency, care, and responsibility, carried out faithfully over time.

Following the awards presentation, the evening continued with a festive Christmas Party for faculty and staff, creating space for conversation, laughter, and renewed camaraderie across departments. Colleagues gathered not as roles or titles, but as a community shaped by shared purpose and mutual respect.

The celebration concluded with a Holy Mass, offering a moment of quiet reflection and thanksgiving. In keeping with the spirit of Christmas Eve, the Mass gently brought the evening to a close, uniting celebration with faith, service, and a collective sense of hope as the university community looked ahead to the coming year.
