One of the hallmarks of a climate for distinction in the community college is the recognition of excellence. Scott Community College and the SCC Foundation developed the Outstanding Faculty, Staff, & Alumni Member Awards to recognize the climate of excellence at Scott Community College.  

One award will be given to the following:
     - a full-time SCC professional or support staff member with a minimum of two continuous years of service to SCC
     - a part-time SCC faculty member  with a minimum of four continuous semesters of service to SCC (does not include
       summer sessions)
     -  a full-time SCC Career and Technical Education faculty member with a minimum of two continuous years of service to
       SCC
     -  a full-time SCC Arts and Sciences faculty member with a minimum of two years of continuous service to SCC
     - a distinguished alumni who attended SCC 5 years or more prior to their induction  

The recipients of these awards will receive a plaque recognizing their outstanding service to SCC, a $50 Visa gift card to treat themselves, and they will be entitled to direct the expenditure of a $250 award from the SCC Foundation anywhere within the college.

Nominations for these awards can be made by any student, alumnus, faculty member, administrator, professional or support staff member from SCC. In addition to completing the appropriate nomination form, the nominator will be asked to solicit two letters of support for the nomination.

The Selection Process:

Nomination packets are compiled as the information is received. A complete packet includes the completed nomination form and two letters of support for the nomination. A selection committee comprised of the prior year recipients will review the nomination materials and make a recommendation to the College President for awarding. The winner is not selected by the number of nominations that he or she receives, but rather by the quality of the nominations, recommendations, and supporting materials.

Nominations are due in by Friday, April 12th.
