The 2023 recipients were David Bergman from National Synchrotron Light Source II; Russell Feder from Collider-Accelerator Department; John Kuczewski from Instrumentation Division; Seth Nemesure from Collider-Accelerator Department; and Joel Vasquez from Physics Department.

The 2023 recipients were Joe Gettler from Stakeholder Relations Office; Stephen Giordano from Information Technology Division; Maria Pacella from Legal Office; Vincent Racaniello from Environmental Protection Division; and Timothy Welty from Radiological Control Division.

The Excellence in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Staff Awards recognize key contributors who demonstrate leadership qualities that exemplify inclusion, diversity, and equity into practical action. The 2023 recipients were Ketevi Assamagan and Mickey Chiu, both from the Physics Department.

The Distinguished Administrator Awards honor administrators for their exceptional service.
