GCCC Conference Room Renamed in Honor of Loretta Schultz
[Garden City, KS] July 16, 2024 -- The Garden City Community College (GCCC) Endowment Association is pleased to announce the renaming of the conference room in the Student & Community Service Center (SCSC) to the "Loretta Schultz Conference Room."
This renaming follows the 2024 GCCC Endowment Scholarship Auction, where Hannah Schultz secured the three-year naming rights for the SCSC meeting space in memory of her late mother, Loretta Schultz.
Reflecting on this honor, Hannah stated, “Some of my first memories are of my mom sitting at the kitchen table with my brother’s friends and helping them with college applications, essays, and future education plans. She held such a high esteem for education and the impact it makes on a person’s life. I can’t imagine a better way to honor her than this.” A commemorative plaque was presented to recognize this dedication on July 12, 2024.
"We are thrilled to celebrate the renaming of this prestigious conference room," said Lenzy Kuebler, Director of the GCCC Endowment Association. "The GCCC Endowment Association is grateful to the Schultz family for their generous gift in our scholarship auction to support students.”
Dr. Ryan Ruda, President of GCCC, expressed his gratitude, stating, “The Schultz family have been strong supporters of Garden City Community College for years, and I fondly remember Loretta. It is a great honor to name this conference room in her memory.”
The newly named Loretta Schultz Conference Room will continue to serve as a valued space for important meetings and presentations at GCCC.
