STC unveiled the winners of two community awards at the 2015 Summit: The Most Improved Community and the Community of the Year. These awards were introduced at the 2011 Summit to complement the current community awards and provide an extra incentive for chapters and SIGs.
The Most Improved Community is given to the community that “stepped up their game” the most from one year to the next, based on their applications for the Community Achievement Award (CAA). This year the award goes to the Phoenix Chapter.
Their citation reads: For your tremendous increase in chapter activities between 2013 and 2014, for rebuilding your chapter, and for serving as a model host for the 2014 STC Summit.
The Community of the Year Award is presented to the community that had the highest score of all of the outstanding Communities of Distinction. The fifth annual Community of the Year Award goes to the Carolina Chapter.
Their citation reads: For a truly solid, activity-packed year during the 2014 Community Achievement Award year. The Carolina Chapter serves as a role model for STC chapters who want to succeed in programs, mentoring, communication, student outreach, and overall member value.
Congratulations to the leadership and members of both communities!
