Jeremy Turkall, MS – Manager, Educational and Student Affairs was recently awarded a 2022 USF Outstanding Staff Award. Each year, the University of South Florida seeks to recognize employees who demonstrate “above and beyond” performance excellence and support the values in USF’s Strategic Plan – In Pursuit of Excellence. The hard work and dedication of these staff and administrative employees greatly contributes to USF’s success and upward trajectory.

Mr. Turkall oversees the educational and student affairs staff team for the school, which directly supports all of our educational programs (DPT, Athletic Training, Residencies). In his role he also supports admissions, marketing & communications, alumni, student organizations and much more. This past year Jeremy was instrumental in supporting our admissions to our various educational programs, particularly our Orthopaedic Residency program. He worked hard over to create personal connections with as many applicants as possible via phone, email, and social media to ensure we could fill each cohort. His hard work, dedication, and willingness to go above and beyond for our department and USF did not go unnoticed by receiving five nominations for an individual outstanding staff award.

Mr. Turkall and other recipients were recognized by USF System President Rhea Law and USF VP’s at a ceremony and reception at the School of Music Concert Hall on October 21, 2022. Congratulations Jeremy!
