Employees of the Semester
Edison State Community College recognized outstanding employee
performance at its most recent all-campus meeting in the Robinson
Theater at the Piqua Campus.
The Employee of the Semester award speaks to Edison State’s commitment
to quality and sustaining positive employee engagement.
“These employees make a difference to Edison State and members of the
campus community, go above and beyond expectations, excel as team
players, and strive to demonstrate the college’s core values,” said
Linda Peltier, Executive Director of Human Resources.
Vince Miller, Adjunct Instructor and Amber Selhorst, Success Advisor
were named the spring 2018 employees of the semester. The honorees were
presented with personalized plaques and reserved parking spaces for the
upcoming fall semester.
Vince Miller, of Huber Heights, was selected for his commitment to
helping Edison State Community College. Miller often volunteers his own
time to serve on committees and projects, sharing his years of
experience and knowledge with those involved.
“Not only does Vince volunteer his time and expertise with no
compensation, he is happy to help. He smiles and enjoys participating.
He finds ways to get involved even outside of committees by befriending
other faculty, adjuncts, and staff,” said a nominator.
“Vince shares his real-world experience in the business and engineering
fields with students. He also shares his experiences at other colleges.
He is a great communicator and very professional. He has served
as an adjunct for more than a couple of decades at Edison State.”
Miller has been an employee of Edison State since 1979 and holds a
Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from The Ohio State
University.
Amber Selhorst, of Piqua, was selected for going the extra mile when
students, faculty, or staff need assistance. Selhorst was honored for
her teamwork mentality and ability to see the whole picture, helping
students and staff reach their greatest potential.
“Numerous times I’ve seen Amber go the extra mile to help students,
faculty, and staff. No matter what the question is, she knows the
answer or knows where to find the answer or won’t stop until the answer
becomes apparent. I’ve referred to Amber as “The Answer Lady” because
when I’ve had questions about just about anything related to Edison
State, Amber is my go-to person. I have witnessed her doing the same
for other staff and faculty, and most certainly students,” said a
nominator.
“Amber works with the Edison State community as a whole. She does not
compartmentalize departments or even departments from students, because
she sees the whole picture and knows we work best when we work
together. Amber demonstrates this teamwork on a daily basis, so much so
that it is hard to distinguish particular instances because it’s just
part of how she works. Her daily commitment to teamwork makes her
excel; perhaps not as an explosive event that gets everyone’s
attention, but as a quiet and determined constant effort to work with
others.”
Selhorst has been employed at Edison State for nearly fourteen years
and holds a Master of Education in Higher Education Administration from
Tiffin University.
All Edison State employees who demonstrate a commitment to the
performance excellence goals, core values, and continued growth are
eligible to be nominated for the award. Those eligible for the award
are nominated by their peers and then selected by the Valuing People
Committee.
