MCC-Longview honors staff and faculty who go above and beyond



The MCC-Longview First Learning Year Team once again honored those important faculty and staff members who have gone above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that students are successful in their first academic year here.

This year, the FLYT Best Practices committee awarded four outstanding individuals with the award.

The first two recipients, associate dean Marvin Aaron and Dean Beth Lindquist, were nominated individually, but were be awarded together.

They were given the FLYT Best Practices Award, as without them there would be no First Learning Year Team. These individuals have persevered in the face of resistance with good humor and magnanimity to keep FLYT alive and flourishing on our campus.

The next two recipients, Bridget Gold and Becky Foster, were nominated as a team.

They have supported first year students by promoting scholarship, effective study skills, creating opportunities for students to utilize campus resources, and demonstrating teamwork through the use of the learning center and through the teaching of a learning community.

Congratulations to all the recipients!

Past recipients of the FLYT Best Practices award were:

2009
Diane Bailey, John Church, Burke Maxted, and Connie Flick-Hruska, Kim Prosak, Cathy-Hardy Parcell

2010
Mary Abraham, Greg Loftin, Stephen Reinbold, Joan Bergstrom, Greg Loftin
