Every year Art Center celebrates employees who have reached significant milestones in their careers.
The College recently celebrated faculty members who reached milestones in 2011.
On Jan. 24, 50 individuals were recognized for having work anniversaries of 10 or more years, with faculty member Errol Gerson, who teaches classes in entrepreneurialism, topping the list at 40 years of service to the College.
The occasion was commemorated with a formal luncheon and presentation of the service awards hosted by the Human Resources Department.
“Art Center students are supported by dedicated staff and faculty who do everything they can, directly in the classroom or indirectly behind the scenes, to help students achieve their goals to become professional artists and designers,” said Nancy Duggan, Executive Director, Human Resources. “It is our pleasure to honor these individuals.”
Art Center President Lorne M. Buchman kicked off the presentations with a word of thanks, which was followed by the awards ceremony.
Congratulations to all those who have given their time and energy to Art Center:
