Edison Recognizes
Employee Excellence at Convocation
Edison Community College recognized two outstanding employees at its
annual convocation ceremony on August 17 in the Robinson Theater at the
Piqua Campus. The awards speak to College’s commitment to quality and
sustaining positive employee engagement.
“The employee of the semester award is meant to create a culture that
recognizes employees and celebrates accomplishments based upon Key
Result one of Edison’s 5-year strategic master plan which focuses on
sustaining positive employee engagement,” said Kara Myers, Coordinator
of Employee Engagement and Talent Acquisition.
“These employees make a difference to Edison and member of the campus
community, go above and beyond expectations, excel as team players, and
strive to demonstrate the College’s core values.”
Terry Calvert, Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Rhonda Rich,
Coordinator of the Darke County Campus were named employee of the
semester at the annual ceremony. Awards were Kara Myers and President
Doreen Larson. Both recipients received a personal plaque and will have
their names engraved on a permanent plaque displayed on campus.
All Edison employees who demonstrate a commitment to the performance
excellence goals, core values, and continued growth were eligible to be
nominated for the award. Those eligible for the award are nominated by
their peers and then selected by the AQIP 4 Valuing People committee.
Calvert, a former Naval Aviator and Air Force Lieutenant Colonel who
holds a Master of Education degree in Mathematics, goes above and
beyond to ensure students are receiving the best education possible.
Her willingness to help students has led her to develop curriculum for
college algebra and statistics. Additionally, she has developed her own
online statistics course that allows for more flexibility in student
course offerings. Always presenting her best with a smile on her face,
Calvert’s commitment to student success is a true testament to the
quality of education found at Edison.
Rich, who holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Education, was
nominated based upon her demonstrated ability to ensure office
procedures are as effective and efficient as possible while maintaining
a positive demeanor. Rich places emphasis on forming lasting
relationships with those around her including co-workers, students, and
high school administrators. During transitional periods, she has proven
to be invaluable by taking on leadership roles. Rich exemplifies a
steadfast commitment to Edison and its constituents.
