The
Trustees Association for Community and Technical Colleges is looking for a few
good students and their stories that tell how attending a Washington state
community or technical college has transformed their lives. This year the
emphasis will be on students who have completed or made significant progress
toward completing a degree or certificate that has helped them prepare for, or
be successful in, a competitive workforce.
TACTC
will honor these current or former CTC students at its Legislative Contact
Conference in Olympia on Tuesday evening, Jan. 29, 2013.
Five
students with the most compelling stories will be chosen to speak at the
keynote dinner and will be presented with a Transforming Lives Award
of $500 each.
All
students and their stories will be included in an awards publication that will
be used for distribution to legislators while trustees are in Olympia for the
conference.
To apply
for this award, Clover Park Technical College students or alumni should prepare
a 500-word essay telling the story of how attending CPTC helped to transform
their lives. The essays are due via email to June Stacey-Clemons (june.stacey-clemons@cptc.edu) by
Friday, Nov. 30.
