The Sceptre & Scroll is the most prestigious of our awards.

Recipients are installed in perpetuity in the Sceptre & Scroll Society.  

Professors Emeriti

The Professor Emeritus is an honorary title, recognizing distinguished academic service at Bristol. The title is awarded to retired Professors who have made an exceptional contribution in academic leadership, including dedicated achievement to their field of study.

Performance Recognition Program 

The Performance Recognition Program is a state-wide program where employees in state service for at least two years are nominated by peers and supervisors for their extraordinary contributions to public service.

Retirees

Every year we like to honor our incredible recent or soon-to-be retirees. Thank you all for your service to the college!

Years of Service Recognition Program

Each year at the Employee Recognition event, 91ϵÁÐ recognizes both full- and part-time employees for their years of service to the college.

Gifts for honorees include pins indicating years of service. The names of employees with 25 or more years of service will be included in the Recognition Garden on the 91ϵÁÐ Fall River Campus.

In addition, the college makes a donation to the 91ϵÁÐ Student Employment Program Fund in the amount of an employee’s years of service. The Student Employment Program is designed to provide eligible students with an opportunity to gain valuable experience as well as a chance to earn money to offset educational and living expenses related to attending Bristol. 

Additional donations to the 91ϵÁÐ Student Employment Program Fund can be made by anyone wishing to honor a college employee by contacting the Foundation office in the Hudnall Administration Building (D118) or at extension 2007. 

Please join us in celebrating the milestones and achievements of Bristol Community College’s outstanding faculty and staff.
