The Northeast Texas Community College Art Department recently named James Buckley as the Outstanding Art Student for spring 2021. Buckley resides in Winnsboro and also served as SGA president for the academic year.

“It is an honor to be selected as the outstanding art student. I have achieved more than I ever thought possible. My instructors drove the art students to stretch ourselves and use our right brain to set lofty goals and attain them,” Buckley said.

Every semester full-time and associate faculty in NTCC’s Division of Humanities and Social Sciences can select an outstanding student, who is exceptional in some way. This semester, Psychology Professor Nicole Sutton nominated Crystal Warren.

Regarding her nomination, Professor Sutton explained that “She has overcome obstacles and is continuing to rise above her circumstances on the way to earning her degree.  She is an attentive, curious, and hard-working student, and is a joy to be around both in and outside of the classroom.”
