According to NISOD’s website, the annual award “recognizes community and technical college exceptional commitments to diversity (including race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, class, veterans, and thought) through best-in-class student and staff recruitment and retention practices, inclusive learning and working environments, and meaningful community service and engagement opportunities.”
Southern Crescent Technical College is dedicated to fostering a welcoming campus community, embracing diversity and ensuring equal opportunity in its educational programs, activities and employment practices.
“It is such an honor for Southern Crescent Technical College to be included as one of NISOD and Diverse: Issues in Higher Education’s 2021 Most Promising Places to Work in Community Colleges,” stated Dr. Alvetta Thomas, President of Southern Crescent Technical College. “As a College, our faculty, staff, and administrators work diligently to promote equity and inclusion and provide all students with equal access to an exceptional educational experience.
