    2014 AwardsIt’s been a rewarding year here at the College.

    The 15 honors set a new standard for the College as the most awards received in a calendar year. The previous mark was set in 2012 by capturing eight awards.

    “We are truly honored and excited to be recognized by these awards,” said Barbara S. Calhoun, dean. “We have a strong, hard-working team sharing the same ultimate goal — to empower those through lifelong learning.”
