On Thursday, May 30th, the office of the Chancellor hosted a District Service Center Employee Appreciation event in the Atrium. Chancellor Tammeil Gilkerson had the opportunity to recognize employees reaching significant milestones in their careers with the Peralta Community College District by presenting certificates for five, ten, fifteen years of service or more, culminating with 30 years of service awards going to Shawnee Martinez and Carmen Fairley.
Alfredo Colon, or Freddy as he liked to be called, retired this week effective July 18th, after more than 39 years working for the district. A Utility Engineer in the General Services department, we wish Freddy the best with the next chapter in his life, which will, fortunately for Peralta, include Freddy’s presence at Peralta in a part-time capacity.
