Two peo­ple have been named recip­i­ents of the 2014 Dis­tin­guished Alumni Award from North­west State Com­mu­nity Col­lege. Dr. Jana Bourn of Wauseon, and Travis Star­buck of Sher­wood have been pre­sented with the high­est honor given by the NSCC Alumni Asso­ci­a­tion.

Devel­oped in 1998, the Dis­tin­guished Alumni Award hon­ors grad­u­ates of North­west State Com­mu­nity Col­lege who have achieved rec­og­nized promi­nence in their career, made sig­nif­i­cant con­tri­bu­tions to their pro­fes­sion and com­mu­nity, and impacted the lives of oth­ers. Recip­i­ents are rec­og­nized at a spe­cial ceremony.
