Eastern Iowa Community Colleges’ (EICC) Clinton Community College (CCC) Registrar and Veterans Affairs Certifying Official, Mardell Mommsen-Flippen, will be recognized with Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society’s prestigious Distinguished College Administrator Award during the Society’s annual convention in Columbus, Ohio, April 20 - 22.
The award recognizes college administrators working directly with student leaders to solve problems on campus and in their communities. They have taken an active interest in supporting high-achieving students and developing student leaders.
“These college administrators are beloved on campus—they know students by name and by circumstance,” says Phi Theta Kappa President and CEO Lynn Tincher-Ladner. “This award is special because it comes directly from the students, and it is evidence of the gratitude they feel for the support for them and students like them.”
Honorees were selected from among thousands of college administrators eligible to receive this award.
