GRAND ISLAND, Neb. – The American College Personnel Association (ACPA) Commission for Two-Year Colleges has recognized a member of the Central Community College staff.

Allie Remm, career and employment services specialist at the Grand Island Campus, is the recipient of the 2025 New Professional at a Two-Year College Award. The award recognizes a new professional who has displayed outstanding professional potential and commitment to student affairs and student development at a two-year college.

She brings a positive professional energy to all her activities.”
