Three Colorado Mountain College employees were recently nominated for Garfield County’s Humanitarian Service Awards. Diane Deford and Jill Ziemann, both full-time CMC employees, were nominated in the Staff Humanitarian category and Debbie Martin, an adjunct faculty member, was nominated in the Volunteer Humanitarian category.

DeFord, a long-time CMC Developmental Studies faculty member, took home the honors in the Staff Humanitarian award category, and Glenwood Post Independent photographer Keely Cox captured her shining moment on camera.  For more about the awards and honorees, read the full Glenwood Post Independent article here.
