Volunteers of the Year
The Volunteer of the Year Award is a new award which recognizes a volunteer from the membership who has made a significant contribution to career education and the ACCSC community through his or her dedication to the accrediting process. This year, we are pleased to recognize two outstanding individuals who have dedicated their time and significant talents to the Commission.
Sherry Bomberger has served as an ACCSC Team Leader since 1998, conducting over 40 on-site evaluations on behalf of the Commission. Sherry, who has been with YTI since 1987, currently serves as the Vice President of Regulatory Affairs for YTI Career Institutes’ corporate office located in York, Pennsylvania. Sherry also serves on the State Board of Private Licensed Schools for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Education and has conducted on-site evaluations for the Postsecondary Services Department of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Education.
Sherry’s commitment and dedication to higher education and her tireless efforts to serve on ACCSC on-site evaluation teams make her an excellent candidate to be selected for multiple site reviews. She has participated in several Commission-directed and other challenging on-site evaluations and provides an exceptional sense of leadership. In addition, she has served the Commission as an Appeals Panel Member since 2007 and consistently demonstrates her commitment to the sector of higher education and the ACCSC membership while upholding the integrity of the ACCSC Standards of Accreditation.
Dr. Gary Maluf is one of ACCSC’s most dedicated volunteers, having participated as an Education Specialist on 59 on-site evaluations since 2005. In fact, in 2010 alone, Dr. Maluf participated in 17 on-site evaluations, including numerous Commission-directed evaluations. Needless to say, Dr. Maluf is committed to the on-site evaluation process and believes in the important work being done by ACCSC-accredited schools to serve students.
Dr. Maluf currently serves as the Laboratory Director at Benson Hospital in Benson, Arizona, where he has been employed since 1987. Dr. Maluf has served as an adjunct faculty member in the College of Graduate Studies at the University of St. Francis in Joliet, Illinois and has served on various governance boards in allied health fields. Dr. Maluf has also authored various articles on topics such as laboratory testing, monitoring diabetes, and molecular screening. By many accounts, Dr. Maluf consistently demonstrates the values of ACCSC throughout the on-site evaluation process and has been a staunch advocate for the students served by our member institutions.
Please join ACCSC in congratulating Sherry Bomberger and Gary Maluf on being named 2010 Volunteers of the Year.
