"Miller To Receive Community College Member of the Year Award"

Washington, DC – The Council for Resource Development (CRD) is proud to announce Rep. Brad Miller (NC-13) is the recipient of this year’s CRD Congressional Award for his assistance in the passage of legislation that benefits community college education.

CRD, which serves more than 800 community colleges, will present the Congressional Award to Congressman Miller, on Thursday, November 2, 2006, in Washington, DC, at the 40th Annual Conference of the Council for Resource Development.

“I appreciate Congressman Miller’s effort to create a bi-partisan Community College Caucus to raise public awareness of the community college system and support our mission to train America’s future workforce.” said Guilford Technical Community College President Dr. Don Cameron.

As founder and co-chair of the Congressional Community College Caucus, Congressman Miller has worked to protect federal funding for community colleges so that laid-off workers have access to job retraining programs and can find work without having to leave their communities. Miller elicited support from across the state. Seven other North Carolina representatives have joined the 117-member caucus including Rep. David Price (NC-4), Rep. Bob Etheridge (NC-2), Rep. Melvin Watt (NC-12), Rep. Mike McIntyre (NC-7), Rep. Robin Hayes (NC-8), Rep. G.K. Butterfield (NC-1), and Rep. Howard Coble (NC-6).

North Carolina has 58 two-year institutions, one of the three largest community college systems in the country.

“I’m delighted to get this award. Guilford Technical Community College is a real selling point to bringing new jobs to Guilford County,” said Rep. Miller. “Our community colleges teach skills that give our workers a shot at jobs with decent wages and benefits.”
