SPC computer networking student Robert Hindmon was given the College of Computer and Information Technology (CCIT) Student Award on April 21, at SPC’s Midtown Campus.

Given to a technology student that excels in the program, Hindmon was praised for his dedication in his studies and his positive attitude.

“I have had Robert in three of my classes at the Midtown Campus,” said Laura Malave, CCIT Academic Chair, Midtown Campus. “He is an excellent student and has especially excelled in Introduction to Computer Programming (COP 1000). He is always on time and prepared.”

Like many SPC students, Hindmon works hard to balance a full-time job and family with his academic course load.

“He is very enthusiastic about the course material and is always willing to volunteer ideas and participate in the class discussion and programming labs,” said Malave. “Robert is able to balance his studies with a job and family life. He is an excellent example of a CCIT student, and I look forward to his continued success.”
