Innovation In the Community College 2008 Award Winners

The League for Innovation in the Community College serves up 53 winners in its 2008 award program. That's way too many to be listing here, but the awards are made in seven categories: (1) workforce preparation and development; (2) learning and teaching; (3) student services and activities; (4) research, assessment, and accountability; (5) resource development; (6) basic skills and developmental education; and (7) leadership and organization. There are a lot of lessons to be learned in the descriptions of what these colleges won awards for - not just for those in other community colleges, either. We especially like Wake Technical College's being the First LEED certified campus in the US and Seattle Central Community College's Global Impact International Service Learning.
