Each year at East Georgia State College’s (EGSC) fall workshop, faculty and staff come together to meet about the upcoming academic year. During the workshop, the annual EGSC Employee Appreciation and Recognition Program is held.
During this year’s workshop on August 3, outstanding faculty and staff were acknowledged. Employees achieving service milestones were presented awards for their dedication and years of service. In addition, STAR Staff Awards were presented to a staff member in each department and Distinguished Faculty Awards were presented to faculty members who have gone above and beyond for students.
The first awards given out, the Service Milestone Awards, were for years of service. The award recipients have 285 years of combined service to EGSC. David Gribbin was awarded the 40 years of service award.
Wilder Coleman, James Steptoe, and Michael Rountree were celebrated for 25 years of service.
Keith Barrs was recognized for 20 years of service.
Jennifer Fields and Donna Freeman received recognition for 15 years.

The next awards presented at the event were the awards for STAR Staff of the Year and Distinguished Faculty Awards. The recipients of these awards were chosen by the head of their department.
In the STAR Staff of the Year category, five full-time staff members were recognized. They were as follows: Michael Rountree for the President’s Office, Alex Smith for Information Technology, Amanda Douglas for Academic Affairs, Lynette Saulsberry for Student Affairs, and Clair Wright for Business Affairs.
