Do Extra Paperwork for an
Extraordinary Person!

Janice Penner

March 31 is the deadline for the
Excellence Awards. When you've
seen those green/black posters
around campus, I’m sure you've
thought of at least one person who
has contributed significantly to your
learning experience here at Douglas
College. Why not invest some time
and get two more nominators to
submit a nomination package?

The nominees can be students,
staff, faculty, or administrators. The
forms in the library, department
offices and on the Douglas website
outline the criteria to address in your
letters of nomination. You can get as
many people as you can to submit
other documents to support your
nomination.

The Excellence Committee (which

consists of faculty, staff, administra-
tors, and students) reviews each
nomination package carefully.
Sometimes it is too difficult to
choose one for the category, so two
have been chosen. It’s not really a
contest—but more so it’s a focus on
celebrating the exceptional people in
our community.

Take some time to reflect on who
has made a difference for you. Don’t
delay! The Committee hopes to be
SWAMPED with submissions.

Fran Johnson, from General
Nursing, is also able to answer any
logistical questions you may have.
She can be reached at
johnsonf@douglas.bc.ca or by phone
at 604.527.5062.
