Photos: Employee Appreciation Day 2018

Again this year, CIO Steve Hess dished out pizza at Employee Appreciation Day, held on September 26 at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

University employees were treated to exhibitors, giveaways, live music, a pizza and ice cream lunch, photo station, bingo, Hooked on Books book drive, Red Zone merchandise discounts, and the rare opportunity to stroll the football field and take part in a field goal-kicking contest.

Below are photos from the event:
