Welcome to DCC!If you are a new student, returning student or you have chosen to take some courses this summer to transfer to the four-year institution you are currently attending, we extend a special welcome to you for the 2013 Summer Session.

2012-2013 has been another exciting and successful year for DCC’s faculty, staff and students. As we reflect on the year’s events, our unwavering commitment to student learning and success continues to be our central goal. As you may know, Danville Community College has always sought to strike a proper balance between our outstanding college transfer and technical/workforce services programs. Speaking of the technical and workforce services areas, we are pleased that DCC will be the recipient of $3.7 million in state funds to expand a number of technical programs, such as industrial maintenance, precision machining, and welding. The state funding will be combined with approximately $3.5 million in private and federal funds, bringing the total to more than $7 million. Other programs affected by the additional funding will include printing/graphic arts, building trades, and electronics. We are grateful to Governor Robert F. McDonnell, our legislative delegation, our industry partners, and the Tobacco Commission for their support in launching this exciting initiative. If one factors in the $7 million raised in the recent Major Gifts Campaign, the College will have access to almost $15 million over the next several years to strengthen program capacity. Clearly, DCC’s future students will be the beneficiaries.

Speaking of the future, on August 1, 2013, a new president will assume the leadership helm at DCC. It will be an exciting new era for this great community college!

Very sincerely,

B. Carlyle RamseyPresident

After moving to the Danville area less than a year ago with what he describes as “next to nothing”, 24-year- old Tyrell Haddock has completed the Training Assessment, Retention and Employment (TARE) program, landed a good full-time job and is now able to support his family which includes a wife and four children.

Looking back, Haddock grew up in Brooklyn, NY, having moved around in various housing situations with his single parent mother, older brother and a younger sister. When his brother left the family, it was up to Haddock to care for his “little sister” while his mom worked.

“I resented it then that I had to sit around and babysit my sister, but now I know it has made me the man that I am today, and how I know I must set an example in caring for my family,” Haddock says.

Married at 21, Haddock and his 20-year-old bride, Lateisha, struggled to make ends meet and soon he was living with three children, his wife’s sister and her two children, another sister, and his mother-in-law in a three bedroom apartment. At the time, he was the only breadwinner in the house, earning money by working various security jobs. He admits, he had never heard of Danville, VA until almost a year ago, when the young family followed his mother-in-law to Danville where she temporarily relocated.

“My wife and children moved here in April 2012, but I stayed a while longer in Brooklyn trying to work because I did not know what the job situation would be like here in Danville,” Haddock explains.

Three months later, in July 2012, Haddock moved to Danville to be with his family, which by now had increased to four children. He found himself unemployed, frustrated, and having to rely on public assistance through the Danville Division of Social Services’ Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. He initially was assigned to perform job search activities, but he was unsuccessful.

In October 2012, Haddock was assigned to the Training, Assessment, Retention, Employment (TARE) program housed on the Danville Community College campus. TARE, sponsored by the Danville/Pittsylvania County Social Services and Pittsylvania County Community Action, offers assessments through the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE), pre-employment training, individual and group counseling, computer skills, vocational training, educational training, supportive services, and assistance with job placement. Classes are held monthly, and participants commit to a four-week session which meets five days per week, from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m.

While he thought he knew a lot about some of the courses offered, Haddock says the job preparation component really opened his eyes about interviewing skills, writing resumes, elevator speeches and completing applications.

“Mrs. (Ann) Goins (class instructor) was wonderful. She encouraged us and brought in actual job applications for us to complete,” Haddock says. “She was so helpful. It is because of her that I have a job today.”

Haddock completed two DCC courses – Introduction to Computers and Job Preparedness, earning a Gold Career Readiness Certificate (CRC). In January 2013, he joined the staff of New Horizons Security Services Inc., after completing several weeks of training. Haddock is happy that he was assigned to security for the DCC campus.

Through DCC TARE Program Haddock Finds Employment

“I was unemployed for eight months when I came to Danville and I had been used to working, earning a living for my family,” Haddock says noting his four children includes Tyeisha, 5; Omari, 4; N’shayla, 2; and Noah, nine months. “I am happy right where I am. My bills are being taken care of, my kids now have clothes and beds to sleep on, and I am able to provide.”

Haddock shares his experiences with other TARE participants by speaking to on-going classes and offering encouragement to others.

“I plan to look ahead and continue to work in the security and law enforcement field,” Haddock adds. “But right now I just want be stable for a while. The TARE program helped me a lot.”

Danville Community College’s Information Systems Technology (IST) program was honored recently with the 2013 Innovation in Education and Outreach Award by the Southern Piedmont Technology Council. The award recognizes the department’s innovative uses of technology to promote and enhance educational opportunities and outreach.

The DCC Information Systems Technology Program focuses on three specializations: Computer Programming, PC Technology and Networking. These specializations are led by dedicated staff who consistently put their students first and work hard to increase students’ learning opportunities. The faculty are also modifying the curricula to reflect the rapidly changing technology world.

Charlie Adams, Professor of Information Systems Technology, has been teaching at DCC for 24 years. He leads the PC Technology specialization, providing courses in computer software and systems applications. Adams has expanded the PC Technology track to offer a more diverse selection of IT courses and give students a strong skill-base in problem solving. Adams also offers advanced courses in Oracle PL/SQL to support the PC Technology and Programming specializations.

Cassandra Satterfield, Associate Professor of Information Systems Technology, leads the Computer Programming specialization. In her 12 years at the College, she has evolved from teaching only one language per semester to offering several languages, including VB, C++, Java, and C# over several semesters. She recently developed a new Gaming and Mobile Application Development specialization which is increasing in popularity. She teaches students how to design, create and maintain programs related to gaming, simulation and mobile applications. Her students learn various languages and programming environments for the latest handheld devices, including Google Android, Apple iOS, and Windows Mobile development. Her work allows area students to be prepared for the latest emerging technology positions.

IST Program Recognized For Innovation In Education, Outreach

With 15 years of teaching experience at DCC, Steve Carrigan, Associate Professor of Information Systems Technology, continuously improves the Networking specialization. His courses provide an emphasis on designing, creating, and maintaining local and wide area networks, including routers, switches, wireless technologies, and voice-over-IP telecommunications. He began teaching a modest selection of classes and has expanded his offerings to include advanced courses in Cisco CCNA, CCNP, CVoice, Security, VMware, Linux, Cloud Technologies, and Microsoft Operating systems. Carrigan has repeatedly sacrificed his time during College breaks to revamp

the labs and equipment. The Networking specialization program now boasts one of the best equipped networking labs in the region, providing the most comprehensive training available.

The faculty’s dedication has led to improvements and enhanced the educational opportunities at DCC. The instructors are constantly looking for feedback from business leaders to adjust their curriculum. Under the direction of the IST advisory committee, the DCC IST department has met all set recommendations from the business community. DCC is now a Microsoft, Cisco, and VMWare Academy. With the setup of the DCC Certification Testing Center, students

have the opportunity to obtain industry certification on-site. Training in voice technologies, including Cisco Call Manager and Unity, cloud computing, and virtualization have been added to the curriculum. The department has worked hard to gain all necessary equipment to support the newly-added applications.

The DCC IST faculty recently blended Linux operating system training into the already established Microsoft courses and added SQL courses. Thanks to the dedication of the IST faculty, Danville Community College is preparing its students for positions in the ever-changing technology field.

Danville Community College’s Information Systems Technology (IST) program was honored with the 2013 Innovation in Education and Outreach Award by the Southern Piedmont Technology Council. Accepting the award on behalf of the college are: (seated) Steve Carrigan, Associate Professor of Information Systems Technology, holding the award; (standing, left to right): Dr. Chris Ezell, Vice President, Academic and Student Services; DCC President Dr. Carlyle Ramsey; Charlie Adams, Professor of Information Systems Technology; John Heinrich, Associate Professor of Electrical/Electronics Technology; Jeff Arnold, Vice President for Workforce Services; Tommy Cannon, Interim Dean, Business and Engineering Technology Division; and Cassandra Satterfield, Associate Professor of Information Systems Technology.


Todd E. BlanksAir Conditioning & Refrigeration; Summer Air Conditioning

& Refrigeration; Winter Air Conditioning Servicing

Todd Blanks of South Boston is seeking a successful and rewarding career with a reputable company

in the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) field. He enrolled in DCC in fall 2011, and is expected to complete his studies in May 2013, receiving a Diploma in Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, and Certificates in Summer Air Conditioning and Refrigeration and Winter Air Conditioning Servicing programs.

Raised on a farm, Blanks, the son of Jay and Teresa Blanks, says his family wanted him to have another career in case farming didn’t work out for him.

“My grandfather is a tobacco farmer and I have worked the farm for as long as I can remember, full time for about six years,” he says. “My parents and grandparents wanted me to be prepared and have another career to pursue, in case anything ever happened to the farm.”

“I looked at other trades and found HVAC to be one of the few industries still growing and I knew that it would be a rewarding and ever-changing career path,” Blanks explains.

He says working and going to school full time has been his biggest challenge. But he says hard work and perseverance has

helped him overcome the challenges.Blanks, whose father and brother,

Phillip, are both DCC alumni, was fully aware of the opportunities he had at DCC. He is also a member of the National Technical Honor Society. However, he says it is DCC faculty and staff who have encouraged him to succeed.

“My instructors, Derick Vicks (Assistant Professor of Air Conditioning & Refrigeration) and Mark Bryant (Associate Professor of Air Conditioning & Refrigeration) have always encouraged me to be open minded and look at all problems from multiple sides,” Blanks says. “Mr. Vicks has always taught that your education does not end on graduation day, that every day in the field is a learning experience.

“DCC is not only a great school, but every day is an exciting experience. Choose a major that you enjoy and success is certain,” Blanks adds.

Sunshine Smith knows exactly what she wants to do for a career.

“My ultimate career goal is to be a professor at DCC,” Smith says. “I have been teaching preschool for nine years so I enjoy teaching others. I am ready to teach older children and see the awe in their faces when learning about genetics – just as I was.”

Smith began her studies at DCC in the summer of 2011. She plans to graduate in the fall 2013 with an Associate of Arts and Science Degree in Science. A native of Danville, she chose DCC to advance her career in education.

“I found that DCC was the best place for that opportunity.” Smith plans to continue her education by transferring to Averett University.

A full-time student, Smith has maintained academic excellence, earning her recognition on both the DCC

President’s and Vice President’s Honors Lists. She is a member of Phi Theta Kappa, the international honor society for two-year college students and a recipient of the Ahmed Children Endowed Scholarship.

Active in the community, Smith participates in various running and walking races. She is a den mother with her son’s Boy Scout troop; a green team member for environmental protection; and the social director at Carlisle School – Danville.

“The best thing about DCC for me is the friendly atmosphere,

knowledgeable professors who are more than eager to help me at any time and the convenience of the flexible hours and online courses,” she says.

Smith notes one challenge she had to overcome was time management.

“I am a full time mother of three children and I have a full time job as a preschool teacher, so I would definitely say time management has been the biggest obstacle,” Smith says. “My tremendous support system at home, the more than helpful professors and staff and the accommodating hours at DCC has

helped me more than anything to overcome my challenges for going back to school.”

Smith notes that her husband has also been a huge source of encouragement.

“My husband, David, told me that if that is what you want, I will stand beside you 100 percent and help you all I can,” she says. “He does this every day - from helping me study for finals to taking care of our three children. He is the most wonderful, supportive person in my life.”

Smith notes that DCC faculty and staff have also encouraged her.

“All of the professors have been encouraging and helpful in my studies,” Smith adds. “One that stands out in my mind would be Dr. Mark Sanderford (Professor of Biology). I told him I was so intrigued and fascinated by the way in which he taught biology, I was going to switch my interest from English to Science. He told me ‘that’s great Sunny, you would make a great science teacher.’”

Smith says she would encourage others to attend DCC.

“DCC is the best place for whatever you are looking for - classroom or online courses. The staff and faculty are extremely friendly and helpful; they are truly concerned about a student’s advancement in his or her chosen career,” Smith says. “DCC is a great learning facility for the diversity of people in our community. From the Admissions Office to the Learning Resource Center, the DCC atmosphere and staff are very welcoming.”

Brandon DawsonIndustrial Maintenance Technician

Brandon Dawson is a prime example of

career advancement through DCC and the Industrial Maintenance program.

“I started out as a temporary employee in EPSU (Equipment Prep Set Up) at Nestle for a year and then transitioned to a EPSU flex associate the next year. Now I have been offered and accepted an electrical technician position as of March 2013,” Dawson says.

A 2006 graduate of George Washington High School, Dawson chose Danville Community College to further his education. He plans to graduate in May 2013 with an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Industrial Maintenance Technician.

A Danville native and the son of Dexter and Marjorie Dawson, he says his parents were instrumental in his attending college.

“Both of my parents went back to college to obtain their bachelor’s degrees at a later age,” Dawson explains. “Watching them balance their careers and education was the key to my success. My dad instilled the expression in me, ‘Success Is When Preparation Meets Opportunity’.”

While attending college full time and also working full time, Dawson has maintained high academic standards, earning him recognition on the DCC President’s Honors List. While he says he’s interested in joining the many DCC clubs and organizations available, he hasn’t had the time to fit it in his busy schedule.

“I chose DCC to develop a relevant career in today’s workforce,” Dawson says. “The Industrial Maintenance Program also offers flexible class schedules for students who work full time. The past two years I have been working 40-50 hours per week.”

“I had to learn how to balance working full time with being a full time student,” he continues. “On my first stint as a DCC student at age of 18, I lacked the time management skills necessary to work full time and be a full time student. Then, being unemployed for a period of time teaches you life’s lessons. One thing it showed me is how an education will be the ticket to success.”

Dawson says DCC faculty and staff have played a role in his success at DCC.

“All of my Industrial Maintenance instructors have been more than helpful. Without them none of this would have been possible,” he notes. “With the instructors having experience in the industrial field, they knew how to transfer the knowledge to the students.

“The Industrial Maintenance courses are extremely interactive with lots of hands on projects that must be completed. It consisted of real modern industrial equipment with lots of troubleshooting activities. This is what gave me a step up when I applied for the maintenance position at Nestle’, I was able to transfer the knowledge I acquired to the real industrial world,” Dawson says.

He plans to further his education, but not immediately after finishing DCC.

“I would like to obtain a Bachelor of Science Degree in Engineering - mechanical or electrical; I haven’t set a time table as of now. My ultimate career goal is to one day become a mechanical or industrial engineer,” Dawson says.

Would he encourage others to attend DCC?

“Its convenience is the biggest selling point,” Dawson says. “But having instructors who genuinely care about what their students are learning helps also. DCC and the Industrial Maintenance Program have opened doors to a career for me. It can open one for you too.”

Tim Good of Chatham had a goal when he enrolled at Danville Community College. “I wanted to learn a trade and HVAC (Heating,

Ventilation and Air Conditioning) is a trade that can always be used,” Good says.

He enrolled at DCC in fall 2011, and chose a triple major - Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, Summer Air Conditioning and Refrigeration and Winter Air Conditioning Servicing programs. He plans to complete studies for all three in May 2013.

“After being laid off from Times Fiber, I was able to pick up Trade Act (Trade Re-Adjustment Act benefits) and choose what new career I wanted. I really didn’t know much about HVAC but I heard DCC had a great program, so I decided to give it a shot,” Good explains. “

When asked who encouraged him to attend college, Good notes “My wife, Maria. I had talked about going to college, but it just never seemed to be the right time. So, when the opportunity came up, my wife said to ‘go for it.’”

Good has excelled academically, earning him recognition on both the DCC President’s and Vice President’s Honors Lists. He is a member of the

National Technical Honor Society (NTHS), which promotes the ideals of honesty, service, leadership, and skill development among America’s future workforce and rewards scholastic achievement in occupational, vocational and/or technical education. Members complete various projects during the school year.

In the community, Good attends Marion Baptist Church, where he is involved in the children’s ministry as a Teamkid Teacher.

A full-time student with a wife and two children, Good says continuing his education has not been without challenges.

“It has been a struggle being a full time student and also supporting a family, but with God’s help and a lot of determination I am overcoming those challenges,” Good says. He notes that his ultimate goal is to have his own mechanical business.

“My instructors, Derick Vicks (Assistant Professor of Air Conditioning & Refrigeration) and Mark Bryant (Associate Professor of Air Conditioning & Refrigeration) are also very encouraging. They are always there to help give advice,” Good adds.

Does he encourage others to attend DCC? “Yes. The instructors are awesome. I think DCC is an excellent

college and the instructors are very knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to make sure you understand the material that they are teaching,” Good says.

Tyrell HairstonGraphic Imaging Technology

Tyrell Hairston is planning a career as a photographer. “I love designing. I’m not so much into mechanical

things, not for a career anyway,” Hairston says. “Designing and photography will be something that I plan on doing for the rest of my life.”

A 2010 graduate of George Washington High School, Hairston chose Danville Community College to further his education. He enrolled in the Graphic Imaging Technology program and plans to graduate in May 2013 with a Diploma in Graphic Imaging Technology.

A Danville native and son of Evelyn Hairston, he says he chose DCC because of its affordability and the fact that it is close to home.

“Many of my family and friends encouraged me (to attend DCC),” says Hairston, who notes that his mother is a DCC graduate. “My friend’s dad told me ‘If you want to land a good job, you better go to college.’”

While being a full time student, Hairston has worked part-time in the Castle Café on campus, and in the Public Relations Office during the fall 2012 semester. He has maintained high academic standards, earning recognition on both the DCC

President’s and Vice President’s Honors Lists. Hairston notes that the DCC faculty and staff have been an

encouragement to him. “I love the people that I have met, the student culture varies

from all walks of life and it’s convenient,” says Hairston. “Sheila Wright (Professor of Graphic Imaging Technology) encouraged

me to put myself out there as a designer and John Heinrich (Associate Professor of Electrical/Electronics Technology) as a photographer.”

Hairston plans to further his education, but not immediately upon finishing DCC.

“I would like to take a few classes at a university later on in my life just to keep my graphic design skills and photography knowledge sharp. I’ve been told that Old Dominion University (ODU) has an amazing graphic design program,” Hairston says.

“I would love to work as a photographer for various magazines, but I don’t want to limit my photography to just portraits and weddings,” he continues. “I want to do many different things like food photography and fashion photography and whatever else I can get into. I saved up to get a Nikon in spring of 2012 and I named it Debbie…Debbie Nikon.”

Hairston says he would not hesitate to encourage students to attend DCC because “it’s convenient, affordable and the place to be!”

Elizabeth Hedrick of

Callands is uncertain of what her ultimate career goals will be, but as she heads towards earning her associate degree in May 2013, she’s got her sights set on becoming a professional dancer.

“That’s a rather long story,” Hedrick says, noting she will give the

short, condensed version. “I bounced between every major imaginable from Interior Design/Architecture to Dietetics, but I could never get excited when I answered the all-famous question ‘So what are you going to major in?’ I finally realized just this past September that dance was the one answer that made me smile the biggest; therefore, it only made sense for me to major in it.”

A 2011 high school graduate, Hedrick came to DCC that fall. However, she says coming to DCC was more about her indecisiveness, rather than her decisiveness.

“I procrastinated in choosing a college for various reasons --- lack of a known major, cost, etc., but in the end, DCC was all that was left,” she explains. “Yet, if I had the opportunity to do it over again, I would not have it any other way. I love DCC. It is perfect for me.”

A Danville native, she is the daughter of Anthony and Sharon Hedrick. Her father is an alumnus of DCC with an associate degree in data processing.

“My parents certainly encouraged me to attend college, not so much in their words, but in their actions. They both supported me all through high school with assistance and guidance in applying for scholarships, in choosing a major, and in deciding where to attend college.”

Hedrick is a full-time student, but also works part-time at DCC as an English and Chemistry tutor. In addition, Hedrick works part-time as a Magician’s assistant at the North Danville Theatre and as a tutor for a dance student.

She has also received financial assistance to help defray

college costs, such as, the Tobacco Financial Assistance Award, J. T. Minnie Maude Scholarship and the Peoples Mutual Telephone Company Endowed Scholarship. Despite a busy work schedule, Hedrick has been named to the DCC President’s Honors List and been active on campus as a member of Phi Theta Kappa, the international honor society for two-year college students, where she is the secretary. In the community, Hedrick is an active member of First Baptist Church in Gretna; has been on two summer mission trips with her church; has led the first graders for Vacation Bible School in the past; and sings in her church choir. This past summer, Hedrick choreographed two dance numbers for the Gretna Little Theatre. She and her family also pack shoe boxes during the Christmas season for Operation Christmas Child.

Hedrick notes that DCC faculty and staff have been an encouragement for her.

“Without a doubt, the best thing about DCC is the people – faculty, staff, and students. I have never met anyone who wasn’t willing to help in any way that he or she could,” Hedrick says. “I have had many wonderful professors and administrators who have encouraged me while I have been at DCC; however, the one person who has supported me the most would have to be Ms. Vickie Taylor (Assistant Professor of Sociology).

“I can recall sitting in her office one afternoon and telling her of my troubled decision to major in dance,” Hedrick explains. “She reminded me that only I could make that decision and that in the end I would be the one to have to live with that choice.”

Hedrick does plan to continue her education after she completes her DCC studies. She has been accepted at Hollins University in Roanoke where she plans to major in dance and minor in communications.

Does she encourage others to attend DCC? “I would absolutely encourage others to attend DCC! The

College is very committed to seeing each and every student succeed and become the best that he or she can be. We have amazing professors who are incredibly personable and easy to work with,” Hedrick says.

Elizabeth HedrickLiberal Arts: Humanities Specialization/College Transfer

“Without a doubt, the best thing about DCC

is the people – faculty, staff, and students.”


After losing her full-time job in the spring 2009, Mary Britton of Danville, who had worked full-time since the age of 16, was devastated. Receiving unemployment benefits

and constantly looking for work was frustrating. Then, in August 2009, Britton was hired by the Danville Police

Department as a school crossing guard, but for only 10 hours a week. Keeping the faith, her hours were eventually increased to 20 hours a week, but she still worried how she would make ends meet. The answer to her prayers came in the mail in the form of a letter from FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) informing her that since she was now a dislocated worker she was eligible to receive federal financial aid and go to school. She was so excited to finally pursue her dream.

Britton enrolled at DCC in spring 2010 and chose the Liberal Arts – Humanities Specialization program as her major. She plans to graduate in May 2013 and receive an Associate of Arts and Science Degree. Her career goal is to become a teacher. Making

the transition to college was not easy for Britton.

“Before I came to DCC I had severe anxiety in crowds, fear of public speaking and low self-esteem.” she explains. “My biggest challenge has been balancing my time in between school, work and home life.”

Britton gives the credit to her caring professors and counselor for helping her to overcome challenges and fears.

“Mrs. Helen Meadors (Assistant Professor of English) was most helpful, very nice and encouraging,” Britton says. “She made me feel confident in my ability to stand and speak in front of a class without fear.”

Britton notes that the best thing about DCC is its people. “I love the diversity, the wonderful teachers and friendly staff,”

Britton continues. “I was worried that I would be the only one my age at college and not fit in. There are all ages and origins. DCC does not discriminate against any religion, race, handicap or gender. DCC has a great mixture of creative students and knowledgeable teachers.”

She is especially thankful for her friends, Ray Collins and Donna Brown, for their positive encouragement.

“Ray was the first person to believe in me and supported my decision to return to school. He told me I would speak in front of hundreds of people one day,” Britton says. “He also bought me a computer, printer and paid for my textbooks for summer school. I mentioned to Mrs. Brown that I wanted to become a teacher, but I was terrified of public speaking. She told me she knew I could do it and continues to encourage me.

“I knew by the age of six that I wanted to be a teacher, but could not afford to go college after high school. I am so appreciative for the generous Financial Aid package that DCC has to offer, for without it , none of this would have been possible. It has been my biggest blessing!” she says.

“When I arrived at DCC, I had no idea what classes were required for my curriculum. Without the wise counsel of Dee Drinkard (Associate Professor of Psychology), my advisor, I would have been lost. He has encouraged me and has been there with me from the beginning to the end. JoLane Dunlap (Instructor and Counselor)

offered me the first advice and encouragement. She helped me with the admissions process and suggested a program of study,” she adds.

After graduating from DCC, Britton plans to transfer to Averett University to receive a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education and minor in Special Education. Her ultimate career goal is to obtain her Virginia Licensure and teach kindergarten through third grade.

She is involved in many community activities, including Engage, March for Babies, Week of the Young Child, Children’s Puppet Ministry, Community Awareness Programs, After-school Tutorial Programs and Festival in the Park. On the DCC campus, she is also involved in the TEACH (To Educate Always Creates Hope) Club, led by Martha Tucker, Associate Professor of Early Childhood and Reading, who she says keeps her busy and motivated.

Britton has had numerous DCC faculty and staff encourage her, including Cheryl Waller (Adjunct Instructor for Developmental Math) who was her most memorable teacher and who never left her side through her struggles with Developmental Math. Traci Daniel, DCC Transition Counselor, supported Britton’s upcoming adventure to the Virginia Tech National Science Foundation Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program.

The REU Program is a Hands-On Minds On Multidisciplinary Internship that allows students to live and study on the VA Tech Campus for 10 weeks. Britton will have the opportunity to interact with other Liberal Arts, Science & Engineering undergraduates and college professors. She will participate in extensive research studying different approaches to understanding and preventing Societal Violence. Britton is one among the 10 students selected from national four-year colleges and universities and within the Virginia Community College System to participate in the program.

Would she encourage others to attend DCC?“Yes. Do it now! Do not be afraid to follow your dream,” Britton

says. “If you don’t try, you will never know, if you don’t take that first step. Don’t let fear or age or anything stop you from doing what your heart tells you to do. If someone had told me four years ago that I would be graduating at the age of 55 from DCC with an Associate (of Arts and Science) Degree in Liberal Arts, working at the Police Department, living at Virginia Tech for the summer and attending Averett (University) in the fall, I would not have believed it. Back then, I could not imagine me doing any of it, but now… I can’t imagine not doing it. Attending DCC has been a wonderful journey.”

DISTANCE LEARNINGDCC has expanded its distance learning offerings. The courses require the student to be self-motivated, to receive and submit most course materials in written form, and to have and be comfortable using the required technology for the course.

DCC Recognized For Sustainability Programs At State Conference

Workforce Services

Danville Community College was recognized recently for its sustainability programs at the Virginia Commonwealth University Energy and Sustainability Conference held in Richmond. The College received the Crystal Award, which recognizes leadership in the areas of energy and sustainability. Jerry Franklin, Director of Manufacturing and Technical Services, accepted the award on behalf of the DCC.

“We feel we have an effective and innovative program in place to guide our students, faculty and community to develop new sustainable habits and appreciate this opportunity for recognition of our efforts,” Franklin said.

Franklin noted the following initiatives in place that focus on energy and sustainability:1. “Sustainability Scholars” program, in which an award is earned upon

completion of 15 credits from courses designated as having at least 20 percent sustainability content. Sustainability content includes environmental science, alternative energy technologies (electric vehicles, bio-fuels, storage, solar, geothermal, low-head hydro, etc.), conservation, and improvement in “Environmental Performance Index” variables i.e. Environmental Health, Ecosystem Vitality, Productive Natural Resource Sustainability and Climate Change. Curricula impacted by this designation include Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, Computer-Aided Drafting and Design, Electrical and Electronics Engineering Technology, Automotive Analysis and Repair, and Building Trades.

2. Career Studies Certificate program has been developed and focuses on Alternative Energy Technologies to meet the workforce needs of local sustainability-related companies. Danville has both a LiFePO4 battery company and a solar panel manufacturer that need workers trained in these sustainable technologies. DCC’s battery technology course is rare among community colleges. The program also has courses in solar installation, energy conservation and wind energy generation. So far, approximately 55 students have taken classes in these technologies.

3. Funding for professional development in sustainability topics. A portion of the college’s professional development budget is designated specifically toward training and education in sustainability topics. As an example, faculty members have been trained at UL Labs in the solar installation facility.

4. DCC is a member of the Virginia Weatherization Center (VWC), and has trained contractors in home weatherization techniques. Four Danville and Martinsville homes, in need of weatherization, were used as learning platforms where $1,000 of material improvements were made in each home. Twelve contractors received BPI (Building Performance Institute) certification through the course work at DCC and the VWC. Funding was provided by VWC and the Dan River Regional Collaborative.

5. DCC’s Phi Theta Kappa honor society has instituted a recycling program on campus that has successfully recycled paper, plastic, aluminum, electronics and printer cartridges. Students also have a textbook recycling program to recycle used textbooks through the “Better World Books Project”. Students routinely car pool for out of town trips as well as local commutes to campus.

6. The DCC Automotive and Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Departments recover and recycle refrigerants from home and auto air conditioners, using Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved techniques and equipment. Also, materials such as paint,

motor, transmission and gear oils, paint thinner, antifreeze, etc. are collected and recycled through an approved commercial materials recycler. In addition, chemicals from DCC’s chemical laboratories are controlled and regulated by policies of the DCC Chemical Hygiene Committee.

7. On campus, DCC is constantly seeking ways to improve energy efficiency of its buildings. Annual energy savings are tracked through improvements, such as upgrading of lighting for efficiency, automatic occupancy sensors, low-flow water fixtures and weatherization of buildings.In the community, Franklin said DCC also developed and led a

community initiative in a novel and innovative approach to reduce auto pollution, save gasoline, and improve fitness among community citizens. The program, known as “E Bike Danville®”, is a collaboration led by DCC’s Workforce Services Office with the Danville Science Center, City of Danville, Virginia Tech Extension, LifeBatt Battery Company, Spin Bike Shop, Gerhardt Engineering. The Dan River Regional Foundation providing funding.

E Bike Danville® studies and promotes the use of electric bicycles as a practical substitute for automobiles. The first phase studied the practicality of using e-bikes for local commuting such as work, shopping, errands or visiting friends. During the summer of 2012, DCC loaned e-bikes to 24 volunteer evaluators for two-week periods to use in place of their cars. Evaluators were asked to keep a journal of all round-trip rides and report their findings.

The E-Bike Danville® study, which was recently released, indicated that e bikes are a practical means of transportation for short (less than 20 miles) trips. An e bike is 18 times less polluting than an automobile, and riders save money on gasoline, insurance, maintenance and registration of a car. In addition, health and fitness is improved, since e bikes assist the rider, when needed, on hills and windy conditions.

The E Bike Danville® program has gained statewide, national and international attention for its innovative approach to using e bikes as regular transportation. In addition, DCC is developing a certificate program in collaboration with the Light Electric Vehicle Association, (LEVA), which will be presented nationally to e bike dealers and manufactures to train technicians to repair e bikes and other motorized vehicles. The training program should be ready to begin summer 2013.

She is also completing post graduate studies in world history from the Russian Academy of Science and is currently Artist-in-Residence at the Danville Museum of Fine Art and History.

Her first presentation, Russian Art - An Overview, ART 2020-90 (#30466) will include the history of Russian art, covering figures such as Chagal and Kandinsky, as well as icons of the Russian Orthodox Church. The lecture will be held Monday, June 24, from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m., at the Regional Center for Advanced Technology and Training (RCATT).

Industrial Maintenance Danville Community College will be offering for the summer 2013’ semester Industrial Maintenance courses at its Regional Center for Advanced Technology and Training located at 121 Slayton Ave., Danville, Va.

The courses at RCATT are being offered in an open-entry, open-exit (OEE) format providing students the flexibility of enrolling anytime during the semester. Classes are offered on Monday-Thursday from 8:00am-12:00pm and 4:00pm-10:00pm. Students register for the courses the same as they would other courses at DCC. The only difference being with the open-entry, open-exit (OEE) courses is the flexible starting and ending times for the courses. Class materials are provided the student at a cost of $50 per course and is payable at the time of registration. Students must register for the accompanying non-credit offering for each credit course taken.

Once enrolled in a course the student has sixteen weeks to complete. An example would be a student enrolled in a four-credit course can easily complete the course by attending one four-hour class per week during the sixteen week period. Students also have the flexibility of completing courses earlier by attending more classes per week. The number of times a student can attend class during the week is dependent on the equipment availability and permission of the instructor.

All the courses are delivered in a hands-on style of delivery using the latest technology found in today’s industry.

The open-entry, open-exit format has been very popular with local industry due to the content, style of delivery, flexibility and time frame of the offerings. Students receive college credit for successful completion as well as opportunity to apply courses to an Associate’s Degree.
