Waubonsee Community College presented the 2019 Support Staff Awards for Excellence. One award was presented in each of three categories: Innovation and Creativity, Service and Quality, and Diversity and Inclusion.

At last month’s commencement we celebrated our fifty-first graduating class; a collective ritual marking both the external changes and internal transformation of people as they prepare to enrich their lives, their families and their communities.

Most people want to make a splash in life. Benjamin Summers has done that both literally and figuratively.

Summers, a 2018 Yorkville High School graduate, chose to go to Waubonsee Community College, in part, because he wanted to continue working as a head lifeguard at the Vaughan Aquatic Center. 

That ability to work while going to school paid off in March 2019 when he received the International Golden Guard Safety Award from Jeff Ellis & Associates, Inc.
