SAVE THE DATE! 33RD ANNUAL SALUTE TO EXCELLENCE

The MCC Foundation will celebrate the impact of philanthropic investment at MCC and the brilliance, creativity and dedication of exceptional alumni making a difference in the community at the 33rd Annual Salute to Excellence. We hope you are saving the date of Thursday, November 14, 2024, when we will gather with this year’s Honorary Chair Dr. Millicent K. Ruffin as we present the Salute to Excellence award to three optics visionaries, Tom Battley, James M. Sydor ’71 and Richard A. Nasca (posthumously), for their extraordinary support in transforming MCC’s Optical Systems Technology Program. Four outstanding alumni will be inducted into the MCC Alumni Hall of Fame, to include: Kimberly J. Gaylord ’98, Michael P. Mandina ’75, Sheila M. Strong ’98, Ed.D. and Tashanda D. Thomas ’06, PHR, SHRM-CP. This year's event will take place at the Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center beginning at 5:30 p.m. 

Tickets for the Salute to Excellence for MCC faculty, staff and retirees are offered at a special rate of $100 per person. Tickets may be purchased here or by contacting Katie Spohr at 585.685.6351 or by emailing kspohr1@monroecc.edu.

As always, thank you for your support of the MCC Foundation!
