These Principles of Community guide the institution’s actions. They provide guidelines to follow and are to be considered a living document. Adherence to the Principles of Community is the professional responsibility of all staff.

Honorary Degree Recipient Roberta Hughan For Gilroy residents, the name Roberta Hughan is synonym-ous with the City itself. Roberta was born, raised, schooled, worked and volunteered within her beloved City of Gilroy. She has two sons, a daughter, and five grandchildren. And she is very proud that all five grandchildren have graduated from universities. Following her graduation from UC Berkeley’s College of Architecture in 1955, Roberta went on to work at achitectural firms in Berkeley and San Francisco, eventually returning to Gilroy working at her own firm of Hughan and Hughan, Architects in 1964. In 1977, Roberta was elected to the Gilroy City Council and re-elected in 1981. Roberta set a presidence when she was elected as Mayor of Gilroy in 1983 and reelected in 1987 through 1991 as she was the first woman to have ever been elected as Mayor in Gilroy. Similarly impressive are Roberta’s appointments: Board of Directors to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, Board of Directors of the California Air Resources Board, Member to the Santa Clara County Valley Transportation Agency Citizen’s Advisory Group, Gilroy Historic Heitage Committee and to the Santa Clara County Commission on the Status of Women It is, however, her volunteer positions that truly exemplify her commitment to the community Roberta calls home and her integrity to those in her community: Theater Angels Art League, American Association of University Women, various Women’s rights organizations, St. Joseph’s Family Center, St. Mary’s School parent groups and to the Gilroy Garlic Festival Advisory Committee…just to name a few. For all her endeavors and dedication, Gavilan College recognizes Ms. Roberta Hughan.
Posthumous Honorary Degree Recipient Antonio Del Buono Antonio Del Buono has best been described as a man whose faith in mankind was always evident he was a fighter for every cause in whch he believed. At the age of 10, following the death of his father, Antonio was forced to leave school to support himself and his mother. Although not participating in a formal education, he never stopped reading or learning – such was his desire for knowledge. Influenced by his reading of the social movements in the 1930s and affected by the depression, Antonio began his personal involvement in the organization of farm workers, which continued to his last days. During the 1940s Antonio met and was influenced by Sol Alinsky, Cesar Chavez, and Fred Ross, so much so that he became the first president of the Oxnard, California Community Services Organization. He organized voter registration drives and worked extensively in local and statewide campaigns through 1974. In 1965, Antonio was the pioneer for the fledgling California Rural Legal Asssistance program, and organized communities to begin legal services for the poor working in Madera, Merced, Fresno, and Gilroy. He later became involved in senior citizens’ activities, taught social workers at San Jose State University and became a lecturer at countless universities as well as a featured speaker. In July 1999, the Gilroy Unified School District opened the doors to the new Antonio Del Buono Elementary School – dedicated to a man whose quest for knowledge could not be deterred. Antonio was known to have said, “A good education builds a good citizen.” Gavilan College honors Mr. Antonio Del Buono; his fight for justice, equity, and his continued desire for knowledge.

Outstanding Scholar
Outstanding Scholar
Gilroy Early College Academy Sameera Khan
Gavilan College Maria de Jesus Rios-Zendejas
An outstanding graduating GECA student, Sameera Khan graduates tonight with an Associate in Art and Certificate of Achievement in Liberal Arts-Multiple Subjects. As a biochemistry and public health double major who will be transferring to UC Berkeley, Sameera aspires to pursue a career in healthcare. Sameera’s altruistic and humble nature is apparent as she states: “I’m very passionate about combining my love for sociology and science to help make advances in rural health care whether it be through research, community programs, or some mixture of the both!” In addition to her scholastic achievements, Sameera has also been involved with the Miss CEO and Interact Organization which empowers young women in the community to become leaders. Sameera’s strength stems from those who have been her strongest source of inspiration – her parents. Immigrating from Pakistan, Sameera witnessed and recognized the inequity and discrimination her parents have faced. With their fortitude and determination they have encouraged by example Sameera’s drive to pursue her passions. Gavilan College is proud to award Sameera Khan the Outstanding Scholar Gilroy Early College Academy/Gavilan College Award for the Class of 2018.
Avid reader and writer, Gavilan College’s Outstanding Scholar, Maria de Jesus Rios-Zendejas graduates tonight with an AA-T and CA in English and is looking forward to studying English at Sonoma State University beginning Fall 2018. Her aspirations are not only to teach and publish her own book, Maria looks forward to making others as passionate about English as she is. Maria credits her love for the written word to her father thanks to his reading stories to her as a child. As a young adult, Maria states that she can always be found with a pen in her hand, whether it be on the bus at the duck pond, or at home, she can be found doing one, or the other. Maria recognizes her parents as the source of inspiration and success, having taught her humility, integrity, and true strength of character. “My parents have indubitably been my biggest inspiration. Every day of my life, I have seen hard work personified in both my mother and father… they are working as hard as ever for me and for everything they have. Eighteen years ago, they brought me to this country. They sacrificed so much of themselves to give me the opportunities they never had. They continue to work themselves to the bone so I won’t have to. Everything I am and will ever be is because of them.” It is the pleasure of Gavilan College to present Maria de Jesus Rios-Zendejas as the Outstanding Scholar for Gavilan College’s class of 2018.

Full-Time Faculty of the Year Alice Dufresne-Reyes Gavilan College’s Health Services IS Alice Dufresne Reyes. Alice’s career at Gavilan began in 1994. In her 25 year career she has: provided support to students and staff; presented for small groups, at the College’s Professional Learning Days, within the community, and at State conferences. For the past 15 years, she has taught the Human in the Life Cycle course. Alice received her AS in Nursing at Chaffey College, followed by her BS in Nursing at Sonoma State, and her MSN at UC San Francisco. Alice’s contributions to the Gavilan College community are surpassed only by her dedication and love for Gavilan. She has overseen a variety of awareness initiatives over her career: bringing the National AIDS Quilt to the campus in December 1994; HIV testing on campus; the 1st LGBTQ Coming Out Day; Pandemic Flu and suicide intervention training, implementation of Kognito online peer support; the Student Health 101 online magazine, and Not Anymore sexual violence awareness video.

Alice’s greatest legacy, however, is the Annual Health Faire, which will celebrate its 25th year in October of 2018. Everyone knows Alice for her gentle strength, her knowledge, and her compassion and putting others first. It is with profound admiration that we recognize Alice Dufresne-Reyes as Full-time Faculty of the Year. “Breathe! Walk outside and enjoy the beauty of the campus while drinking your water. Find someone that you connect with on campus be it the staff such as a class faculty, College Health Nurse, Secretaries in any of the offices, your Counselor, Coach, Staff in the financial aid office, or the library, etc. Find someone to share your story with and let them know how you are doing. Get involved in one thing on campus, and/ or attend one thing that you don’t have to for a class but just because. Be part of the Community…”

Rho Alpha Mu Honor Society Honor society membership has a long history in America, beginning when tutors and advanced teaching assistants joined forces to share scholarship discussion, and recognition of merit through an organization designated a Phi Beta Kappa, which was founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary. In 1926 the California Community College Honor Society was formed under the title Alpha Gamma Sigma. It is affiliated with the National Junior College Honor Society and the Phi Beta Kappa Organization of four year institutions. Rho Alpha Mu, the local chapter of Alpha Gamma Sigma, was formed in 1976. The Greek letters stand for RAM, the Gavilan College mascot. Eligibility for membership requires at least a 3.0 grade point average. In addition, members are required to complete ten hours of community service each semester, and participate in fundraising and other club activities. To be eligible for life membership in Alpha Gamma Sigma, students must maintain a 3.25 grade point average in at least 60 units of college work and have been a member in good standing for at least two continuous semesters. 2017-2018 Rho Alpha Mu of Gavilan College is proud to present Lifetime Membership in Alpha Gamma Sigma to the following students:
