Columbia Gorge Community College (CGCC), in cooperation with the Columbia Gorge Community College Foundation, gives a Faculty Excellence Award each year to honor excellence among its many dedicated instructors. This award will go to an instructor who embodies our college mission of building dreams and transforming lives by making a difference both inside and outside the classroom.
