Randolph Community College’s Student Government Association won five awards at the North Carolina Comprehensive Community College Student Government Association (N4CSGA) Spring Conference at the Durham Sheraton Imperial Hotel and Convention Center on April 7-9.

Tyler Lisk of Asheboro was awarded the Outstanding Community Service Award. This award is given to an individual who has performed exemplary community service, made significant contributions to enhance the quality of life in their community, and demonstrated an understanding of his or her responsibility to one’s community. The award is based on an application and interviews at the conference. Lisk’s contributions include serving as chair for the RCC SGA Volunteerism Committee, volunteer with Partnership for Children of Randolph County, volunteer with Our Daily Bread Soup Kitchen of Asheboro, Board of Directors member with the United Way of Randolph County, participant in RCC’s Dancing with the Stars, participant in Vintage En Vogue Fundraiser for the Community Health Foundation for Randolph Health, and active volunteer for the Randolph Chamber of Commerce.

Kirsten Stovall of Liberty was awarded the Daryl Mitchell Award for Outstanding Students for the Central Division. This award is given to three students, one in each division, Central, Western, Eastern. Daryl Mitchell played a significant role in the success of the N4CSGA during his tenure as president. This award is given in his honor to a student who demonstrates the leadership qualities upon which the organization is founded. The students honored with this award demonstrate the six pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. Stovall was nominated by RCC, then was required to submit an application and interview against other students from across the central division.
