<str<strong>on</strong>g>Graduates</str<strong>on</strong>g> nominated by faculty and selected by the Graduati<strong>on</strong> Committee to represent <strong>their</strong> class and speak at the May 12th commencement include Kar<strong>on</strong> (Susie) Yocum<br />
as student keynote speaker; McAllister (Mac) Nels<strong>on</strong>, welcome address; and Daniel Lorett, closing remarks. Susie will receive her Associate of Arts degree in human services.<br />
Mac will receive his Associate of Arts degree in liberal arts. Daniel is graduating with an Associate of Applied Science in respiratory therapy.<br />
Kar<strong>on</strong> (Susie) Yocum spent over 25 years as an ir<strong>on</strong>worker until c<strong>on</strong>gestive heart failure<br />
changed her life. In 2003, following heart valve replacement surgery, she held various jobs<br />
including working at a c<strong>on</strong>venience store, frying d<strong>on</strong>uts and a paper route. “I wanted to give<br />
back to the community, I wanted to help people,” recalls Susie. That’s when she enrolled at <strong>San</strong><br />
<strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> and found her niche in social work.<br />
Susie has completed her degree requirements for her Associate of Arts in human services.<br />
She will enroll at New Mexico Highlands University this fall where she plans to earn her bachelor’s<br />
degree in social work. Al<strong>on</strong>g with working as a substance abuse and life skills facilitator at <str<strong>on</strong>g>Focus</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
Soluti<strong>on</strong>s Counseling, she has held a work study positi<strong>on</strong> in the college’s Enrollment Services<br />
department for the last four semesters, and worked as a certified peer educator for the EDGE<br />
program, where she mentors students who are new to campus. She also found time to help<br />
others, serving as a note-taker for Disability Services. She is no doubt an inspirati<strong>on</strong> to others,<br />
by overcoming significant pers<strong>on</strong>al challenges to return to school and complete her degree. She<br />
gives credit to the support of her family – including seven brothers and sisters, her dad and<br />
stepmom, D<strong>on</strong> and Sue Yocum, as well as her mother, Helen Shelt<strong>on</strong>, who has since passed away.<br />
McAllister (Mac) Nels<strong>on</strong> spent his first year at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> commuting back and<br />
forth from Naschitti, driving two and <strong>on</strong>e half hours every day. He is a 2009 graduate of Navajo<br />
Preparatory School.<br />
Mac will receive his Associate of Arts degree in liberal arts. He plans to transfer to the<br />
University of New Mexico in the fall to pursue a bachelor’s degree in psychology, and eventually<br />
a master’s degree in psychology. He wants to follow in his dad’s footsteps, working with teens as<br />
a drug and substance abuse counselor or therapist.<br />
Mac is currently a tutor in the Student Success Center, a SJC student ambassador, AISES club<br />
member and a past president of the SJC Out Club. He is active in the SJC Native American Center,<br />
helping with the Pow Wow and as a speaker for the Cultural Immersi<strong>on</strong> program. He helped<br />
organize the Spring-A-Paloosza and volunteers his time with campus events such as movie<br />
nights, and fundraisers for various campus clubs. His parents are Mable and Leroy Nels<strong>on</strong>.<br />

Before coming to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong>, Daniel Lorett attended New Mexico Highlands<br />
University and was running his family’s business. He had a str<strong>on</strong>g interest in health care. As a<br />
child with asthma, he had first-hand experience with the positive impact a respiratory therapist<br />
has with patients. He appreciates that respiratory therapy is involved in critical care and that<br />
there are many career opportunities al<strong>on</strong>g that path.<br />
He is <strong>on</strong>e of the first graduates of the new Associate of Applied Science in respiratory<br />
therapy program, where he has maintained an “A” in all his respiratory therapy courses and<br />
has been a class ambassador for the last three semesters. He was recently approved for<br />
membership in the Lambda Beta H<strong>on</strong>or Society for Respiratory Care.<br />
Following graduati<strong>on</strong>, he will apply to the University of Ariz<strong>on</strong>a and then apply for medical<br />
school where he eventually hopes to become an anesthesiologist. Daniel is the s<strong>on</strong> of D<strong>on</strong> and<br />

Aleida Rios, BP America Vice President of Operati<strong>on</strong>s,<br />
to Deliver Graduati<strong>on</strong> Keynote Address<br />
Aleida Rios, BP America Vice President of Operati<strong>on</strong>s,<br />
North America Gas Regi<strong>on</strong>, will be the keynote speaker<br />
at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s graduati<strong>on</strong> cerem<strong>on</strong>ies. Rios was<br />
born in Mexico and raised in Houst<strong>on</strong>. She graduated<br />
from Texas A&M University with a Chemical Engineering<br />
degree in 1991.<br />
As the Vice President of Operati<strong>on</strong>s for the North<br />
America Gas Regi<strong>on</strong>, she is accountable for the safe,<br />
reliable and efficient operati<strong>on</strong>s for all BP North American<br />
gas operated assets. This includes operati<strong>on</strong>s in seven<br />
states – nine operating centers and four gas plants with<br />
over 12,000 operated wells.<br />
BP, through its legacy companies, has a l<strong>on</strong>g history<br />
of producing natural gas in the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> Basin, straddling<br />
northwest New Mexico and southwest Colorado. The <strong>San</strong><br />
<strong>Juan</strong> Basin produces approximately 3.5 billi<strong>on</strong> cubic feet<br />
per day of natural gas from c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al sandst<strong>on</strong>es and<br />
This year’s <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> commencement will<br />
see double the number of h<strong>on</strong>or graduates<br />
crossing the stage to receive <strong>their</strong> diplomas. This<br />
is an increase from 28 in 2011 to 56 in <str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g>.<br />
Over the last seven years, the number of h<strong>on</strong>ors<br />
program graduates has grown from <strong>on</strong>e in 2005 to 56<br />
in <str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g>. Eight years ago, there were approximately 30<br />
h<strong>on</strong>ors students enrolled in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> h<strong>on</strong>ors<br />
courses. Over the last three semesters, that number has<br />
increased to an average of 300 students per semester.<br />
“The implicati<strong>on</strong>s of this growth are significant, not<br />
<strong>on</strong>ly for h<strong>on</strong>ors students, but for <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> and<br />
the community,” explains Dr. David Bramhall, SJC h<strong>on</strong>ors<br />
program coordinator. “A graduate, who has received an<br />
enriched educati<strong>on</strong> and, more importantly, has learned<br />
that he/she is capable of achieving more than they ever<br />
imagined, will undoubtedly be more successful in <strong>their</strong><br />
chosen career. In turn, <strong>their</strong> c<strong>on</strong>tributi<strong>on</strong>s play a vital role<br />
in improving the quality of our community.”<br />
san juan college communicator I May/June <str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g> I www.sanjuancollege.edu<br />
Graduati<strong>on</strong> is definitely <strong>on</strong>e of the greatest days of<br />
the year. For me, each graduati<strong>on</strong> provides an “Ah ha<br />
moment.” Seeing the colorful wave of students smiling while<br />
filing in <strong>on</strong>e-by-<strong>on</strong>e to <strong>their</strong> places, families and friends<br />
waving, cheering – these expressi<strong>on</strong>s of joy represent the<br />
visible evidence of success.<br />
Commencement serves as an opportunity to celebrate<br />
the accomplishments of our students. It’s a time to be proud<br />
that we’ve all worked together and made a commitment<br />
to help <strong>on</strong>e of our own achieve a dream and accomplish<br />
a milest<strong>on</strong>e. It’s <strong>on</strong>e more step toward building a str<strong>on</strong>g<br />
foundati<strong>on</strong> for the future. That’s exactly what our new service<br />
theme c<strong>on</strong>veys – Your Dream. Your <strong>Future</strong>. Our <str<strong>on</strong>g>Focus</str<strong>on</strong>g>.<br />
I’m proud to have been a part of an instituti<strong>on</strong> that is made<br />
up of a dedicated faculty and staff who take this to heart,<br />
and put our students’ success in the forefr<strong>on</strong>t.<br />
As you listen to our student speakers, you’ll hear how<br />
<strong>their</strong> stories represent the journeys all our students have<br />
traveled to reach <strong>their</strong> own individual success. For many, this<br />
is just the beginning – maybe the launch of a new career or<br />
an opportunity to discover a sec<strong>on</strong>d <strong>on</strong>e. Whatever the case,<br />
each graduate will no doubt have a positive effect <strong>on</strong> our<br />
community and the lives they touch as they move forward in<br />
the next step of <strong>their</strong> journey.<br />
unc<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al coal-bed methane reservoirs – enough<br />
gas to supply approximately 3 milli<strong>on</strong> US households in<br />
c<strong>on</strong>sumpti<strong>on</strong>. BP has nearly 200 people working in the<br />
Farmingt<strong>on</strong> operati<strong>on</strong>s and is the third largest natural<br />
gas producer in New Mexico.<br />
Throughout her 20 year career at BP, Rios has<br />
held numerous wide ranging roles in various leadership<br />
capacities including previous operati<strong>on</strong>s and engineering<br />
roles in both the Gulf of Mexico and North America Gas.<br />
Rios most recently held the positi<strong>on</strong> of Area Operati<strong>on</strong>s<br />
Manager – Eastern with North America Gas, and prior<br />
to this role, she worked in L<strong>on</strong>d<strong>on</strong> as the Executive<br />
Assistant to the Head of Safety and Operati<strong>on</strong>al Risk.<br />
Rios is married and has three young s<strong>on</strong>s. She<br />
enjoys everything her “boys” do, as well as yoga and<br />
quiet time with a good book.<br />

“The <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> H<strong>on</strong>ors Program is unique,”<br />
adds Dr. John Burris, SJC h<strong>on</strong>ors program co-coordinator.<br />
“We are building a program that could be recognized as<br />
the model for community college h<strong>on</strong>ors programs.”<br />
Two years ago, the program expanded to include<br />
a professi<strong>on</strong>al track for students in the Schools of<br />
Energy, Health Sciences and Trades and Technology. The<br />
h<strong>on</strong>ors courses of study were customized to the specific<br />
disciplines. Students are provided with an opportunity to<br />
gain an in depth skill set and dem<strong>on</strong>strate <strong>their</strong> level of<br />
achievement.<br />
The growth of the h<strong>on</strong>ors program would not be<br />
possible without the generosity of the Merri<strong>on</strong> Oil and Gas<br />
Foundati<strong>on</strong>. In 2011, they pledged $25,000 annually, over<br />
the next five years through the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> Foundati<strong>on</strong><br />
to benefit the h<strong>on</strong>ors program. Funds will be utilized for<br />
h<strong>on</strong>ors scholarships, speakers and educati<strong>on</strong>al trips.<br />
“It is rare when something exceeds my expectati<strong>on</strong>s,<br />
As our graduates move forward in <strong>their</strong> journey, we<br />
c<strong>on</strong>tinue to do the work behind the scenes that ensures<br />
we are serving the needs of our students and community.<br />
With our 10 strategic goals having been determined, we are<br />
now in the process of developing our strategic plan. The<br />
Strategic Services committee will take the input that was<br />
received from the college and community and c<strong>on</strong>nect <strong>their</strong><br />
feedback with the 10 goals to develop the final plan.<br />
We also recently held an open house inviting input<br />
and feedback from both the college and community<br />
regarding our Facility Master plan. From parking to student<br />
housing, proposed c<strong>on</strong>cepts for campus building and site<br />
improvements were presented. If you were unable to attend,<br />
I invite you to visit our website, where you can view the plan<br />
and give us your ideas.<br />
Our board has selected Dr. T<strong>on</strong>i Pendergrass to serve<br />
as your college’s next president. Please join me in welcoming<br />
her. I know she will take as much pride as I have in serving<br />
such a great instituti<strong>on</strong>. With an inclusive leadership style, a<br />
student focused philosophy and a true passi<strong>on</strong> for the local<br />
community, I am c<strong>on</strong>fident she will c<strong>on</strong>tinue guiding <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> toward excellence.<br />
and the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> H<strong>on</strong>ors program does,” says T.<br />
Greg Merri<strong>on</strong>, president of Merri<strong>on</strong> Oil and Gas.<br />
In additi<strong>on</strong> to growth in numbers, the quality of the<br />
program is increasing. H<strong>on</strong>ors students who achieve<br />
a 3.6 GPA and complete 18 hours of h<strong>on</strong>ors classes or<br />
more are now recognized as Merri<strong>on</strong> Master Scholars<br />
with <strong>their</strong> names engraved <strong>on</strong> a plaque in the Learning<br />
Comm<strong>on</strong>s just outside the library. In this graduati<strong>on</strong><br />
class, 14 h<strong>on</strong>ors graduates received this recogniti<strong>on</strong>.<br />
“It’s awesome to have the opportunity to give back to<br />
<strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong>, an instituti<strong>on</strong> that has not <strong>on</strong>ly made a<br />
difference for me and my family, but has had a major impact<br />
<strong>on</strong> the future of our community,” adds Merri<strong>on</strong>.<br />

Students Nominated for<br />
All-USA Academic Team<br />
<strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> students Jayme Wils<strong>on</strong> and Gabriel Kropf<br />
were recognized for <strong>their</strong> nominati<strong>on</strong> to the <str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g> New<br />
Mexico All-State and All-USA Academic Teams <strong>on</strong> Community<br />
<strong>College</strong> Day during the recent legislative sessi<strong>on</strong> in <strong>San</strong>ta Fe.<br />
Aztec native, Jayme Wils<strong>on</strong>, will graduate in the spring of<br />
2013 with an Associate of Science degree in pre-medical science.<br />
Jayme plans to enroll at the University of New Mexico to<br />
earn her bachelor’s degree in biology, then apply to medical<br />
school where she hopes to become a doctor and return to<br />
practice medicine in the Four Corners area.<br />
Jayme Wils<strong>on</strong><br />
“The faculty of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> have had an amazing impact<br />
<strong>on</strong> me,” says Jayme. “Whether you are a mom, a wife, an employee,<br />
or regardless of your circumstances, SJC faculty will help<br />
you achieve your goals.”<br />
A homeschool student, Gabriel Kropf earned his GED through<br />
<strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong> before beginning his college degree program.<br />
He will graduate from SJC in the fall of <str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g> with three Associates<br />
of Science degrees in mathematics, physics, as well as in<br />
engineering. He has begun the process of applying to various<br />
schools across the United States including various Ivy League<br />
schools. He hopes to earn his doctorate degree in mathematics<br />
or physics and eventually work in a research facility.<br />
“I wouldn’t be where I am today without the dedicati<strong>on</strong> of<br />
the faculty at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong>,” says Gabriel. “They have been<br />
Gabriel Kropf<br />
instrumental in helping me see how much I love to learn.”<br />
Sp<strong>on</strong>sored by USA Today and in partnership with Follet Higher Educati<strong>on</strong> Group, the<br />
Coca-Cola Scholars Foundati<strong>on</strong>, the Coca-Cola Foundati<strong>on</strong>, the American Associati<strong>on</strong> of Community<br />
<strong>College</strong>s and Phi Theta Kappa, this program recognizes excepti<strong>on</strong>al students at the<br />
nati<strong>on</strong>’s community colleges. All-USA State Academic Team members are selected from those<br />
chosen for state h<strong>on</strong>ors.<br />
Both students were nominated for the All-State and All-USA Academic Team by <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>’s Office of the President. In additi<strong>on</strong> to evaluating outstanding classroom achievement,<br />
judges also c<strong>on</strong>sider how the students apply <strong>their</strong> academic, intellectual or leadership<br />

New School of Energy<br />
Program Meets<br />
Community Needs<br />
Randy Pacheco, dean of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Juan</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s School of Energy (SOE), had a visi<strong>on</strong><br />
to create a work-friendly certificate/degree program. The result is a new program<br />
called Advanced Petroleum Producti<strong>on</strong> Operati<strong>on</strong>, which the SOE will offer this fall.<br />
It’s the next level of training from what was previously offered in the Natural Gas<br />
Compressi<strong>on</strong> and Lease Operator programs. (The latter is now known as Fundamentals of<br />
Petroleum Producti<strong>on</strong> Operati<strong>on</strong>s).<br />
“This new certificate/degree is for the working employee who already has time invested<br />
with a company and can’t afford to quit and go back to school,” explains Pacheco. “The program<br />
is flexible but achievable for workers who want to take the next step in becoming more<br />
informed and safer employees.”<br />
“Making time for that next step pays off,” c<strong>on</strong>tinues Lisa Martin, BP project coordinator<br />
for the School of Energy. “Energy companies whose employees participate in School of<br />
Energy programs find <strong>their</strong> workforce expands <strong>their</strong> skill base, while preparing them for the<br />
next level.”<br />
The energy industry is changing, and employers are looking at ways to invest, not<br />
<strong>on</strong>ly in <strong>their</strong> employees, but in <strong>their</strong> companies’ future. That means partnering with colleges,<br />
such as SJC’s School of Energy, where potential employees have been well trained, or where<br />
current employees can receive professi<strong>on</strong>al development to become more promotable, knowledgeable<br />
and safer workers.<br />
The new program offers some of the same classes that are in the SOE’s other two<br />
degree programs, but <strong>on</strong> a different schedule. A <strong>on</strong>e half-credit class is offered every<br />
Thursday. Those classes, al<strong>on</strong>g with required electives, give students flexibility to achieve <strong>their</strong><br />
certificate or degree in <strong>their</strong> own time frame.<br />
People d<strong>on</strong>’t have to apply and be accepted into the new program as they do for the<br />
Natural Gas Compressi<strong>on</strong> and Fundamentals of Petroleum Producti<strong>on</strong> Operati<strong>on</strong>s programs.<br />
“These programs are really catching the eye of the energy industry,” Martin says.<br />

TriCityNews.TV launched <strong>on</strong> M<strong>on</strong>day, March 5,<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>2012</str<strong>on</strong>g> from a studio at the main campus. These Internet<br />

Chautauqua Series Finale – Step Right Up!<br />
McNeal’s Marvelous Medicine Show is About to Begin<br />
With a natural flair for drawing a crowd, Violet McNeal<br />
was <strong>on</strong>e of <strong>on</strong>ly a handful of women in business. As<br />
“Princess Lotus Blossom” she sold an ast<strong>on</strong>ishing array<br />
of cures; as Violet, hers was a dynamic voice in the<br />
“advertising as entertainment” style of marketing that<br />
prevails today.<br />
Anthropologist, storyteller, magician, actor and teacher,<br />
Diana Enright is currently researching the voice of women in<br />
the medicine show/side show/performance art of magic field<br />
“The <strong>on</strong>-campus studio provides students with an<br />
opportunity to use the skills learned in the classroom in an<br />
actual news studio setting,” explains Renner. “It gives them<br />
real-world experience, from deadlines to producti<strong>on</strong>, and<br />
helps them develop the professi<strong>on</strong>alism that is needed to<br />
pursue a career in the media field.”<br />
Al<strong>on</strong>g with the news set, the green screen studio is also<br />
used by students throughout the semester for class projects,<br />
giving them an opportunity to create high end special effects.<br />
Students also can utilize the studio for other class projects.<br />
Vaughan adds that the professi<strong>on</strong>alism and various levels<br />
of experience that students gain are also advantageous<br />
to his company. “We have the benefit of being able to recruit<br />
interns and potential employees who have well developed<br />
<strong>on</strong>-air and producti<strong>on</strong> skills.”<br />
