Bobby Clift, an engineering major, has been named Silver Scholar on the 2014 Coca-Cola Community College Academic Team and received a $1,250 scholarship at the Honor Society Annual Convention April 25 in Orlando, Florida.
Badgerama is a day when students get to take some time away from the books and those people who keep waking them up in class. There are games, food and every club supporting its cause. The band selected to play on this Badger-filled day was Nashville’s Mockingbird Sun.
Amarillo College’s annual spring celebration, Badgerama, moved into Carter Fitness Center on the Washington Street Campus April 17 because of the weather.
Mockingbird Sun, a band out of Nashville, played for an audience of students as they ate barbecue and participated in games and other activities in keeping with this year’s “two-step” theme.
Eighty percent of college students are dangerously sleep-deprived, according to a Stanford University study.
Being sleep-deprived causes poor judgment, increases the risk of fatal accidents and decreases the body’s ability to concentrate.
Few people are fortunate enough to make a living doing something they truly love. At least one instructor at Amarillo College feels lucky to be one of the few.
When he was working on his degree in business administration at Texas Tech University, Cox chose history as an elective.
Amarillo College offers many options for degree programs: almost everything to choose from. But Scott Beckett, a music instructor, is pioneering a new degree that would bring recording arts to the foreground as the premier program at AC.
“We are in the process of creating a degree program,” Beckett said. “In order for us to officially launch this program, we have to have five years of tracking. In another two years, it will be a full program.”
When asked, many students said they’d be hard-pressed to find an instructor as passionate as Rene West.
An Amarillo College photography instructor since 2008, West has shared that enthusiasm with the many students who have passed through her classes.
When Amarillo got its a public television station in 1988, it was known as KACV-TV.
The station underwent a rebranding recently, dropping the old title and emerging under the name Panhandle PBS.
Panhandle Public Broadcasting Service started the Big Idea Challenge April 2. It’s a five-week puzzle full of scattered clues all around Amarillo.
The Challenge, in its first year, is a way to raise funds for Panhandle PBS.
