Aims Community College Natural Sciences Chair and Instructor Christine Gaudinski was recently honored as the Faculty of the Year for the college. Gaudinski was selected by the Associated Students of Aims Community College for her "passion in teaching, for making chemistry fun, for phenomenal talent in the classroom, and for being an ally in student learning," according to a plaque she received commemorating the award.

"It was so nice that my students made the time to go through the process to recognize me," Gaudinski said. "It felt really, really good."

Gaudinski began teaching chemistry at Aims in 2007. She earned her bachelor's degree in chemistry and biochemistry from La Salle University, her master's in chemistry from the University of Northern Colorado, and conducted post-graduate work in chemistry at Colorado State University. Gaudinski teaches all levels of chemistry at Aims, as well as integrated science courses.

As the Faculty of the Year, Gaudinski represented Aims at the annual Faculty of the Year honors banquet for the Colorado Community College System.
