for 35 years of service to the College

During the luncheon, a number of faculty and staff members were recognized for their years of service to the College. Those who have served five to 15 years received special lapel pins indicating the number of years served. Those with over 20 years of service to the College received awards made of Catawba blue recycled glass.
