|
Jim Gillentine has been awarded the 2019-20 SIUE Employee Degree Completion Award. A five-member faculty committee selected Gillentine from a pool of seven candidates.
The Degree Completion Award program is administered by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Administration. The program is designed to allow employees to attend classes up to full time, if needed, for two semesters and complete their baccalaureate degree.
Gillentine has served SIUE as a building services worker since 2014. Discovering that SIUE will waive tuition for employees, he enrolled in college for the first time that fall. He has attended classes during the day, then clocked in and worked the 6 p.m.-2 a.m. shift each night, cleaning Founders Hall classrooms. He is nearing completion of a bachelor’s in English with a double major in philosophy and a minor in creative writing.
