The National Junior College Athletic Association has announced the 2010-11 Academic Student-Athlete Awards as well as  the 2010-2011 NJCAA All-Academic Teams. The 2010-2011 season marks the 28th year the NJCAA has recognized the success of its student-athletes in the classroom. With minimal changes the NJCAA program has been in place since 1983.

Adjunct instructors are being assembled by Dawson Community College for the next academic year. Individuals holding an appropriate Master’s degree from an accredited college who are interested in teaching courses within various transfer programs offered at DCC are welcome to apply.

Those with specialized credentials in the trades or vocational areas are also needed. Qualifications necessary for instructing Career and Technical courses at DCC are available from the Dean of Instruction.

Add some extra color to your home or garden, join instructor Mike Hunter as he presents the workshop Stained Glass—Make it in a Day on Saturday June 25 from 8-5 p.m. Students will spend the day creating an awesome one-of-a-kind stained glass light catcher. This highly addictive glass crafting class is only offered in the summer at DCC. Hunter will guide students in the preparation of stained glass designs and the processes of cutting glass, copper foiling, leading, and soldering. All you have to do is show up and have fun!

The Dawson Community College Rodeo team will finish their season with the college national finals rodeo June 12-18 in Casper, Wyoming.
