Exemplary Service Award
Tom Dusek, scientific glassblower in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. Tom has been with FSU just over four years. His nominators say he is the most skilled, cooperative and productive scientific glassblower in the department for almost 40 years! He has been instrumental in creating devices essential to the department's success, such as the water degassing device. Another states that he is a rare commodity for the department. One last nominator sums it up by saying that it is rare to find someone who so consistently provides quality service while at the same time brightening the work day for us. Congratulations, Tom!
