Jeff Scofield

The Chancellor’s Award for Outstanding Professional Staff goes to Jeff Scofield, director of financial aid. He has been instrumental in decreasing and streamlining the amount of paperwork that comes through the financial aid office annually.

One of his most outstanding contributions has been his ability to take the lead in developing effective ways to handle data using Banner, a new student information system. Scofield tackled the task with a calm, can-do attitude.

Scofield’s colleagues say that his professional demeanor, collegial and positive attitude and extensive knowledge of financial aid make him an invaluable asset to UH Hilo.

The Chancellor’s Awards honor outstanding service by UH Hilo employees.
