Meet Dr. Rickey Harman, recently chosen by his teaching peers as the 2009 Faculty Member of the Year.

Dr. Harman's a numbers guy - a math instructor - at WC, but he has a way with words, too, describing his enthusiasm for teaching quite eloquently: "I am very blessed to be able to work at WC… We have the opportunity every day to help students in all facets of their lives… Some of the most rewarding days come when we see older students coming back to college after being out for 20-30 years and being successful in the classroom and fulfill life-long dreams. Teaching's a very gratifying job that keeps me young by being around great people in my classes."

Dr. Harman's words all add up in keeping with WC's tradition of educational excellence for almost 140 years! Well said!
