FREEPORT - Highland Community College employees have an opportunity once a year to nominate their colleagues for an Excellence Award.
The award recognizes employees for quality work, excellence in their working relationships, creativity, honesty, integrity and self-development. A committee made up of Excellence Award recipients from the previous two years selects the winners in each category: classified, faculty, and administrative. This year's recipients include Executive Assistant Rhonda Perry, Psychology Instructor Paul Rabideau, and Associate Dean of Business and Technology Scott Anderson.
The Highland Community College Foundation also annually recognizes one employee with the Opel Award named for a Highland founder, Don Opel.
The award recognizes employees who go "above and beyond" in serving or promoting the College. This year the Foundation presented the award to Steve Gellings, a full-time faculty member in the business and technology division.
He has been helping to develop the new wind turbine technician degree, which has required an extraordinary amount of time and commitment by Gellings.
