Foundation

Each year, the Indian Hills Community College Foundation presents awards for outstanding achievement and service to five individuals in the following categories:

• Two awards to Indian Hills employees
• One award to an Indian Hills retiree
• One award to a lay citizen
• One award to an outstanding alumnus/alumna

In 2013, the Dr. Jim Lindenmayer Leadership Award was established to recognize an individual located in the Indian Hills ten–county region who has displayed outstanding leadership traits–compassion, integrity, service, and vision. Dr. Jim Lindenmayer, the first recipient, was recognized at the annual staff workshop. The "Leadership" nomination form is available below.

Indian Hills employees, retirees, students, and interested citizens are invited to submit nominations.
