Herkimer College Magazine Wins Awards

Two Herkimer College students received recognition from the Community College Humanities Association (CCHA) for their contributions to the 2018 issue of the college’s arts and literary publication Phaethon.
Theodore J. Cook of the Mohawk Correctional Campus won first place for his original script, “The Other Side of the Curtain.” GuiHua Gan, an international student from China, won third place in the artwork category for her ceramic sculpture “Longping.”

The CCHA’s annual literary magazine contest recognizes student achievement in the humanities across the United States. Phaethon competes in the Eastern Division comprised of community colleges in a region extending from Maine to Maryland, and also including Puerto Rico. The 2015 and 2017 issues of Phaethon have also received multiple awards. Phaethon is co-advised by Matthew Powers, Instructor of English, Andrew Devitt, Assistant Professor of English, and Blake Pitcher, Associate Professor of Digital Graphics & Design.
