BATAVIA – The Genesee Community College Foundation invites nominations for its Alumni Hall of Fame, which recognizes those alumni who have achieved outstanding success and made a lasting impact on their community. The Foundation will induct the next class of nominees in Fall 2023.

GCC introduced the Alumni Hall of Fame in 2007 to recognize those alumni who have achieved outstanding success and made a lasting impact on their community. In over 16 years, the college has recognized 45 outstanding graduates in a variety of professional fields from law enforcement, healthcare and economic development, to name a few.

The criteria for nominating an individual to the Alumni Hall of Fame are based on the individual’s contributions to his or her profession, distinguished service to the community and/or service to Genesee Community College. Nominees must be well-established in their professional lives, completing their GCC degree at least ten years prior to nomination.

Nominations may be submitted by the nominee or by friends, family, work associates or other colleagues who are familiar with the nominee. A selection committee will choose honorees. New inductees will be honored at a reception on campus, and their photo and a short biography will be featured on a plaque displayed in the Alumni Hall of Fame, located on the second floor of the Conable Technology Building.

Nomination forms are available on GCC Foundation’s website (click here) or contact the Foundation office at (585) 345-6809.
