A SALUTE TO DIFFERENCE MAKERS Cox Communications recently recognized 43 students from Escambia County with the Cox Inspirational Student Hero Award. The award honors students who have overcome extreme challenges in life, such as mental or physical disabilities, severe medical conditions, language barriers or family adversity. The students were chosen by a committee of leaders at their school and honored during a special ceremony at the University of West Florida. During the event, Cox presented the students with an engraved medallion and certificates of honor from Cox and Congressman Jeff Miller’s office. “It is with courage and character that these students deal with and overcome each obstacle, taking on life with passion and determination, and discovering a stronger sense of self,” stated Keith Gregory, senior vice president and general manager of Cox Florida/ Georgia. “It is truly my honor to pay tribute to these student heroes.”
