Superintendent of Building Services
The first Patrick Phillips Award for Staff Service was presented to Nick J. MacDonnell at the Annual Retirement Reception in June 2000. MacDonnell joined the University in 1968.
He first worked in Physical Services Stores where he was involved in shipping and receiving. A few years later he moved to the Physical Plant Office where he became Building Service Officer.
He is presently the Superintendent of Building Services where his responsibilities include maintenance of the buildings, room bookings, and setting up the Meeting Place for special events.
MacDonnell has always worked quietly and efficiently behind the scenes. For MacDonnell no job is too big or too small.
