WASHINGTON--The Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT) on Friday, October 28 presented its 2022 ACCT Association Awards, recognizing outstanding community college trustees, equity programs, chief executive officers, faculty members, and professional board staff members from throughout the nation. The 2022 ACCT Awards program is sponsored by Edamerica.
ACCT's Awards recognize the tremendous contributions made by community colleges and their leaders to meet the needs of their communities.
"Community colleges are uniquely committed to making high-quality higher education accessible to all people," said 2021-22 ACCT Chair and Moberly Area Community College Trustee James Cooksey," serving as gateways to meaningful careers and even higher education for many. This year's regional awardees represent the most outstanding people and programs across this great nation."
"Identifying and recognizing outstanding community college leaders is a highlight of our year," said ACCT President and CEO Jee Hang Lee. "The 2022 awardees are among the most dedicated we've seen, reflecting our colleges' tireless commitment to helping students succeed. It is a privilege for all of us at ACCT to be able to shine a spotlight on some of the incredible people and programs at community colleges. Congratulations to all of this year's awards recipients."
