James & Sandra Zagon Honoured

Garry Carter & Sandra Zagon 

This evening at the Annual Media & Design Hall of Fame Gala James Zagon was inducted into the Media & Design Hall of Fame.  This honour was presented posthumously to his wife Sandra Zagon.

Along with a very generous donation of James Zagon's photographic gear Sandra founded the James Zagon Memorial Scholarship here at the college.  This is an annual Scholarship that awards two to three Photography Students with a scholarship of $750 each since 2003.  

Once again the Staff, Faculty and Students would like to thank Sandra and James for their generosity and support of the Photography Program and photographic education.
