Nicole Cottetta (ENG'02), featured in last week's B.U. Bridge as Student Employee of the Year, has won both the state and regional Student Employee of the Year contests, sponsored by the Northeast Association of Student Employment Administrators (NEASEA). Winning the regional competition makes her one of four students at the national competition, sponsored by the National Student Employment Association.
The University presented her with a plaque and a $500 U.S. savings bond at a luncheon at the GSU. She will also receive a $50 U.S. savings bond for the state award and a $200 bond for the NEASEA regional award.
