Graduates with a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 to 3.69 will be announced as“graduating with honors.”

Graduates with a cumulative grade point average of 3.7 to 4.0 will be announced as“graduating with highest honors.”

Phi Theta Kappa MemberPhi Theta Kappa is a national honor fraternity for community college men and women, recognized by the American Association of Community Colleges. Its purpose is the promotion of scholarship, the development of leadership and service and the cultivation of fellowship among the students of the community colleges of the United States. Initiates are selected on the basis of scholastic rank (having completed at least one term of community college work), and must be judged of good moral character and possess good citizenship qualities.

Alpha Sigma LambdaAlpha Sigma Lambda National Honor Society was established to honor the special achievements of adults who accomplish academic excellence while facing competing interests of home and work. The Kappa Beta Chi Chapter on the Barton Community College campus provides an association for, and recognition of, academically outstanding non-traditional students. Members are invited from the highest ten percent of the class who have twenty-four graded credits and who are matriculated in an undergraduate program. Those selected must have a minimum grade point index of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale or its equivalent.

Since the regalia used in colleges and universities for academic occasions may not always be understood by visitors to a campus, the following information will explain the items of apparel. Everyone possessing a college degree is entitled to wear a black robe on appropriate occasions. Faculty members wear hoods in addition to the gown. Hoods are generally black, trimmed in velvet in the color of the subject field, and are lined with the colors of the college or university conferring the degree. The correct colors to denote various branches of learning have been established by the Intercollegiate Code.

Kathy BoegerInstructor & Coordinator of Business and AccountingBarton County CampusMrs. Boeger has been such a blessing to me and many other students. My first semester I was scared and nervous. I wasn’t sure if I would succeed. Mrs. B always told me she knew I could do it. She encour-aged me to take more courses and to push through no matter what

obstacles were in my way. I have had some personal turmoil and without her motiva-tion and encouragement I would not be looking at graduating in May. Mrs. B ALWAYS made sure her students’ needs were met, even when she was going through her own difficult, personal situations. Mrs. B is the most caring and selfless person I have ever met and I firmly believe she deserves this award.

Charlotte CatesBiology InstructorBarton County CampusMs. Cates helped me through a difficult time in my life. Not only did she help me with my studies, but she helped me in my personal life, too. When I was younger, I had a passion for science. As I got older, I thought it would be impossible for me to go back and pursue my

dreams. When I first went to college, I had to drop out because I couldn’t afford it. I saved up for many years and was finally able to return when I was 26. I returned to college to pursue a degree in something I liked, but after realizing the passion wasn’t as strong as I thought it would be, I switched to a Liberal Science degree. Last semes-ter, I took Ms. Cates Biology class. On our way back from a school event, we started to talk about our interests. I mentioned I used to want to be in the science field, but I gave that up because I felt I was “too old” to start my journey now at 27 years old. She encouraged me and helped me find resources to continue pursuing my dreams again. I became energized and through her class I was able to sign up for different activities and events. I started becoming genuinely happy and that was not a feeling I had felt for a while. I juggled going to school full-time, taking care of an ill family mem-ber and working a part-time job. She not only helped me keep up with my studies but also helped find resources for the struggles I was going through. I felt like my life had purpose and a direction again. Thanks to her generosity, I was able to get help for my family member, stay on top of my grades and now I am also now proud to say I will graduate this year. I could not have done any of this without her.Nominated by Jenessa Tammen

Brittany FanshierNursing InstructorBarton County Campus

Going through nursing school was the most difficult time of my life, and Mrs. Fanshier was always there for me. Her door was always open for me to come talk to her, she advocated for me as a student, and encour-aged me to be the best student nurse I could be. She was very support-

ive of me through not only school but also through my father’s illness. She had such an impact on me throughout my time at Barton that I truly believe I couldn’t have done it without her.Nominated byTana Yellowwolf

Jessica FullenInstructorFort Riley CampusJessica Fullen has impacted my time at Barton in the most wonderful way. Before taking her Public Speaking class, I would not be caught dead talking in front of a classroom full of people. She made her class a safe, comfortable place for the students to talk about sensitive sub-

jects or things we wouldn’t usually talk about in a normal classroom setting. Not only is her classroom setting a safe place, but she is a great confidant as well!Nominated by Eden LaPointe

Kristen HathcockMathematics InstructorBarton County Campus

It is hard to describe with words how much Mrs. Hathcock positively impacted my life while I was at Barton. She has made me the student I have always wanted to become. She taught me to always have a backup plan and to think outside the box. She taught me how to handle prob-

lems of all sizes. When I went through a rough time during my experience here at Barton, she was always there to listen to me and to pick me up when I was down. I’ve learned to take the bad with a grain of salt and to hold my head up high because things won’t be bad forever. I’ve learned to stop focusing so much on the bad and pay more attention to the good. She taught me that holding myself to the standards of perfection will only result in disappointment because no one is perfect and that’s okay. She has helped me grow into a better person and I will be forever grateful.Nominated by Ayi-Lissa Dotson

Stephanie JoinerDirector of Student Academic DevelopmentBarton County CampusMrs. Joiner has been a great supporter and is always happy to help. She is a very talented person and was a great resource for students that needed help with anything. Nominated by Maria Eduarda Nunes

Arlette StrattonAdministrative Assistant and VA SpecialistFort Riley CampusThroughout my time at Barton, Arlette has always helped me. I know I was probably difficult at times with all the questions I used to bombard her with, but she always found me a quick answer. When I emailed her, she would always respond that day unless she was out

of the office, in which case, she always gave me notice well in advance. Even though she is the VA representative, she would help me enroll in classes when my advisor was out of the office. She helped me out tremendously.Nominated by Matthew Dalton

She is always there to help me out and is never too busy. It never takes her more than 24 hours to get back to me. She is always so cheerful and in a good mood. She always has positive vibes to pass on to others.Nominated by Manuel Rodriguez
