Horry-Georgetown Technical College (HGTC) leaders were recently recognized by the South Carolina Association of Technical College Commissioners (SCATCC) for distinguished leadership and decades of service to technical education in South Carolina.
Two longtime members of the HGTC Area Commission were honored for their years of service. Tommy Branyon, past chairman of the HGTC Area Commission and secretary of the SCATCC Executive Committee, was recognized for 35 years of service, while Orrie West, secretary of the HGTC Area Commission, was recognized for 40 years of service.
Marilyn “Murph” Fore, past president of HGTC, also received the association’s Chief Executive Officer of the Year Award, recognizing her service, leadership and contributions to technical and community college education.
“These recognitions reflect an extraordinary commitment to Horry-Georgetown Technical College and to the mission of technical education across South Carolina,” said Melissa Batten, HGTC interim president. “Mr. Branyon, Ms. West, and Dr. Fore have each given generously of their time, leadership and experience in service to our students, our college and our community. We are incredibly proud to see their contributions recognized at the state level.”
SCATCC represents commissioners from South Carolina’s technical colleges and works to promote education and workforce training opportunities for South Carolinians while advocating for the state’s technical college system.
