麻豆传媒 recently honored 29 students at the 27th Annual Student Awards & Recognition Ceremony. Students were recognized for their accomplishments in the classroom and contributions to GHC.

Silvan Skelly was selected for the Carpentry Student of the Year award, 鈥渂ecause he is a dedicated student who performs at a high level academically and with hands-on work. And because he is a student leader and mentor. And because he volunteers his time to help others in our community. And because he conducts himself as a Carpenter should 鈥� with honor, respect, and dedication to the craft,鈥� said Adam Pratt, Carpentry Instructor. 鈥淟ike most of our Carpentry students, Silvan received valuable scholarships to reduce the cost of his education and training.  He was also awarded $1,240 in free tools through the Hughes Tools Scholarship. And like most Carpentry graduates, he had multiple job offers well before graduation. Unfortunately, Silvan鈥檚 hard work has left him with a terrible dilemma: he can鈥檛 decide between too many great opportunities.鈥� 

Joshua Young earned the Student Leadership Award for his work with GHC鈥檚 student government. 鈥淛osh is always on the lookout for injustice and ways to help,鈥� said Sarah Dalrymple, Director of Student Life. 鈥淚f it鈥檚 right, if it鈥檚 kind, if it brings one of his peers out of the cold and into our community, he makes sure it gets done.鈥�
