Faculty Recognition

I am proud to share with you that John McGill, York Tech’s Science Department Chair, was recently recognized as a finalist for the Governor’s Professor of the Year award at a luncheon on the University of South Carolina campus. John was one of 10 finalists selected among 34 candidates nominated by their respective institutions. Craig Garner, South Carolina Higher Education Foundation President, presented John with an award for his excellence in teaching and student advising.

Last year, John was the recipient of the President’s Award for Excellence at York Tech’s 2011 graduation. John is passionate about his work and the success of his students. He continuously looks for new and creative teaching methods to engage his students. We are very proud of John and all his accomplishments!
