Outstanding students honored at Honors Day programs

Anniston, Ala. – Gadsden State Community College recently held its 56th annual Honors Day events at the Cheaha Center on the Ayers Campus in Anniston and at the Wallace Hall Fine Arts Center in Gadsden. The programs spanned two days of recognizing student achievements and scholarship presentations. Almost 300 awards and scholarships were given with scholarships totaling more than $812,000.

Ayers Honors Day

The President’s Cup, a designated award for students who demonstrate exceptional success in all phases of college life, is presented each year to students in both the academic and technical divisions. It is given by Dr. Kathy Murphy, president of Gadsden State.

The Academic Division recipient for the Ayers Campus is Jerod Robbie Guthrie of Anniston. He received an Associate in Science in General Studies at the May 5 commencement ceremonies held at Gadsden State Cherokee. He plans to enroll at the University of Alabama at Birmingham to pursue a bachelor’s degree in Accounting. At Gadsden State, he served as a peer tutor in the Cardinal Tutoring Center and served on the Accounting Advisory Committee. He was a member of Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and was active in Student Support Services. He also was on Gadsden State’s Homecoming Court in February.

In addition to winning the President’s Cup at Honors Day, Guthrie also was recognized as the Outstanding Accounting Student. He also received the UAB Transfer Pathway Scholarship.

The Ayers Campus Technical Division recipient of the President’s Cup is Nathaniel King of Jacksonville. He is a non-traditional student who recently earned an Associate in Applied Science in Electronics Engineering Technology at the Ayers Campus. He embarked on a new career after the closure of the Goodyear tire plant in Gadsden, where he worked for 25 years. At 50 years old, the married father of three decided to use funds provided to displaced workers to enroll at Gadsden State. King is a musician at his church, where he also volunteers with its food ministry, and he teaches taekwondo at the Anniston Aquatic Center.

At the 2021 Honors Day, King was the recipient of the Outstanding History Student Award and the Outstanding Automotive Manufacturing Student Award. At this year’s awards ceremony, he received the Outstanding Electronics Engineering Student Award.

Three area students were presented awards for outstanding achievement. The Outstanding Achievement Awards recognize students who have succeeded in pursuit of higher education in spite of varying traumas, adversities, personal losses and difficulties.

The Outstanding Achievement Awards given at the Ayers Campus event went to Rezaea Foroutan of Anniston, Jackson Guthrie and Garrett Williamon, both of Oxford.

Foroutan is a product of the child welfare system and grew bouncing from one foster home to another. Despite those struggles, she was determined to go to college and better herself and change her life. She now is one of a few females majoring in Electrical Technology at Gadsden State, and she maintains a 3.5 GPA. She is a tutor on the Ayers Campus, is a member of Student Support Services and serves as a big sister in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program. In addition to winning the Outstanding Achievement Award, Tony Thrower, her instructor, presented her with the Outstanding Electrical Technology Award.

Guthrie was recognized for his hard work and determination as a general studies student on the Ayers Campus. He recently graduated from Gadsden State with a 3.59 GPA. Prior to graduation, he was a member of Phi Theta Kappa and served as a tutor for Student Support Services and the Cardinal tutoring Center. At Honors Day, Guthrie was presented with the Outstanding Accounting Student Award by his instructor, John Sudduth. He also received a Transfer Pathway Scholarship to UAB, where he plans to attend in the fall and major in accounting.

Williamon is majoring in Industrial Automation and is a member of the FAME program on the Ayers Campus. Through the FAME program, he earns a wage working at Kronospan while attending college and gaining priceless work experience. He has overcome many obstacles to be a successful Gadsden State student. He moved out of his house because his stepmother is immunocompromised, and he did not want to risk giving her COVID-19. Financially independent, Williamon navigated a world of responsibility while maintaining a 3.58 GPA. He also was presented Outstanding FAME Student at Honors Day by his instructor, Tarina Vannatta.

Gadsden Honors Day

Traditionally one of the highest honors presented each spring is the Allen-Ray Award. The award, which has been presented at every Honors Day program over the past 54 years, is presented in honor of the late Sen. James B. Allen and the late Jack Ray, former CEO of the Exchange Bank of Alabama. Both men were active supporters of Gadsden State. Ricky Ray, the son of the late Jack Ray, presented the 2022 Allen-Ray Award to Kourtney Tillman.

Tillman, a resident of Southside, is the vice president of the Student Government Association representing Gadsden State Cherokee. She is a peer tutor with the Cardinal Tutoring Center and is embedded in remedial math to assist her fellow students. She is president of her nursing cohort and a member of the Trio for Success Club, the Student Disciplinary Committee and Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. She has been on both the President’s and Dean’s List and was a member of the 2022 Homecoming Court. She was awarded a certificate in Practical Nursing at the May 5 commencement ceremonies.

Tillman is a helpful community and college steward. She assisted in writing a grant with fellow SGA officers for outdoor learning space in the quad on the Wallace Drive Campus. She spearheaded student activities, like the Halloween Dance, and a bed build with Trio for Success Club for Sleep in Heavenly Peace. She also organized a campus blood drive as well as a clothes closet for students in need of professional attire for job interviews. In addition to winning the prestigious Allen-Ray Award, she also was awarded a Student of Distinction Award, Outstanding SGA Officer Award and Outstanding CTC Peer Tutor Award.

The Academic Division recipient for the Etowah County campuses and Gadsden State Cherokee is Kennedy Fox of Hokes Bluff. Fox received her Associate in Science in General Studies with a short-term certificate in Surgical Operating Room Technician at the May 5 commencement ceremonies at Gadsden State Cherokee. While at Gadsden State, she served as president of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and served as a tutor in the Cardinal Tutoring Center. She was named to the All-Alabama Academic Team and was instrumental in PTK achieving the Distinguished Honors in Action Hallmark Award. In February, she was crowned Gadsden State’s Homecoming Queen.

During Honors Day, Fox also received the Jacksonville State University Presidential Transfer Scholarship and the University of Alabama at Birmingham Transfer Presidential Scholarship She plans to obtain a bachelor’s degree before applying to a physician’s assistant graduate program.

The Technical Division recipient of the President’s Cup is Hannah Kate Dale of Centre. Dale is a student in the Precision Machining Program. She started her educational journey at Gadsden State as a dual enrollment student. She went on to earn the Gene Haas Scholarship Award and became the first in her family to enroll as a college student. At Gadsden State, Dale is a member of the Project MFG Machining Competition Team. She and her teammates participate in joint machining, programing and welding competitions that are funded and supported by the U.S. Department of Defense.

Three Gadsden area students were presented awards for outstanding achievement. The Outstanding Achievement Awards recognize students who have succeeded in pursuit of higher education in spite of varying traumas, adversities, personal losses and difficulties.

The Outstanding Achievement Awards given at the Wallace Drive Campus event went to Janice Underwood of Gadsden, Joshua Parrish of Gadsden and Roberta Bush of Attalla.

Underwood’s college journey began years ago but was halted after her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and required constant care. When she recovered, Underwood went to work at Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. instead of enrolling in college. When the plant closed in 2020, Underwood decided to enroll at Gadsden State because the class schedule was convenient and allowed her the time necessary to care for her special needs child.

At Gadsden State, Underwood has flourished as a college student. She has maintained a 4.0 and is a member of Student Support Services, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, Alpha Beta Gamma Business Honor Society, Trio for Success Club and Phi Beta Lambda, a business organization. In addition to winning the Outstanding Achievement Award, Underwood earned scholarships to Auburn University at Montgomery and Athens State University. She plans to transfer to a four-year university to pursue a degree in Human Resources Management.

Parrish has defied the odds since being born with cerebral palsy. His parents were told that he would be wheelchair bound but, to this day, he walks without assistance. He is now majoring in Electrical Technology at Gadsden State and has been on both the President’s and Dean’s lists. He is a member of Student Support Services and Trio for Success Club at the College.

Twenty years ago, Bush enrolled in College but soon dropped out after the death of her infant son. She eventually began working as a surgical technician and was so highly regarded that she was asked to work with students training to be nurses, many of them from Gadsden State. When her husband became ill, she decided that she needed a career that would put her in a better financial situation to care for her two daughters. Remembering the positive experiences she had with Gadsden State nursing students, she applied to and was accepted into the nursing program. Nursing school has been a challenge for Bush. She worked full time in addition to taking a full load of classes. A tornado struck her house during her first semester and required a repair and remodel. She persevered and graduated from Gadsden State in May.

Bush was also honored at the recent Nursing Pinning Ceremony with the highly-coveted Florence Nightingdale Award, which recognizes the student who is the most committed to caring and compassionate nursing care. She was also the featured speaker at the pinning ceremony and was recognized for being an Alabama Area Health Center Scholar. The AHEC-sponsored program is designed to enhance the education and training of health science students committed to serving Alabama’s rural and underserved populations. Bush now works in a surgical intensive care unit at a local hospital.
