Spotlighting Our Success Awards Returns to Campus
The Spotlighting Our Success Awards returned to campus with an in-person celebration
on May 13. Dozens of SBVC employees were recognized for advancing in academic rank,
receiving an award nomination, or winning an award. This year, the committee awarded
the Honored Retiree Award to the late Edward J. Szumski, in honor of the celebrated
faculty member who was instrumental to launching the Spotlighting tradition at SBVC
in 1995. The 2022 winners included Dr. Todd Heibel, Jamie Herrera, Nhan Zuick, Dora
Penn, Kris Shafer, Ernest Guillen, Rick Hrdlicka, Maggie Worsley, Andrea Hecht and
Dr. Stephanie Lewis. The event ended with a special recognition of the 2020 Accreditation
Committee, which had worked to secure the highest level of reaccreditation possible
for SBVC at the start of the pandemic, a very rare distinction statewide. Congrats,
SBVC!
