Edison State Adjunct
Faculty Honored at Banquet
Twenty-one employees were recognized for instructing a combined total
of 3,300 semester hours or approximately 1,100 classes in their careers
at Edison State Community College’s annual adjunct faculty recognition
banquet on Wednesday, August 23.
Elisha Hicks, President of Academic Senate and Education Associate
Professor of Early Childhood Education, served as the event’s Master of
Ceremonies, and Provost Christopher Spradlin provided a keynote address
and presented honorees with gifts.
“Tonight we want to show our appreciation for all of our adjunct
faculty,” said Edison State Provost, Christopher Spradlin.
“Along with our full-time faculty, you all are the backbone of the
institution. You are the ones who are out in front of our students
every day, working with them, educating them, and you’re changing their
lives in the process. You are a great value to the institution, and we
recognize that we wouldn’t be here without you.”
When it came time to honor Dr. Loleta Collins, who has taught over five
hundred hours, the audience cheered. Students in Dr. Collins’ classes
provided positive comments about their experience with her.
“Dr. Collins is always very knowledgeable and always quickly responds
to questions.”
“Professor Collins is very patient, she took the time to talk to me and
keep me focused to help me be successful in my classes,” stated another
student.
