Loomis wins two national procurement awards

NORTH EAST, Md. – Cecil College proudly announces that Diane Loomis has received two national awards for her work as the institution’s procurement manager. She is the 2022 recipient of the Sterling Agency Award from the Universal Public Procurement Certification Council (UPPCC) and the 2023 recipient of the Distinguished Service Award from the National Association of Educational Procurement (NAEP). Loomis was also the recipient of the Distinguished Service Award in 2020. Procurement involves obtaining the goods and services Cecil College requires to support its daily operations. These functions include sourcing, contract negotiations, providing guidance, advice and counseling to stakeholders, asset management, receiving and inspecting goods, and maintaining a comprehensive purchase requisition and contract database.

“I appreciate the College’s commitment to providing professional development opportunities to its employees. The knowledge I have gained through the CPPO and the NIGP-CPP certification process is invaluable,” said Loomis.

The Sterling Agency Award is an advanced level of recognition reserved for agencies that apply for and achieve Universal Public Procurement Certification Council (UPPCC) Agency Certification Award recognition for three consecutive years.

“We are proud of Diane’s dedication and achievements,” said Cecil College Controller Craig Whiteford. “It’s advantageous for our college and those that do business with us to have a certified professional working to improve the college’s operations.”

Through its Agency Certification Award program, UPPCC identifies organizations that have earned the distinguished and unique honor of achieving and maintaining a high percentage of UPPCC-certified staff. As the College’s sole procurement employee, Loomis has maintained her certification.

The NAEP Distinguished Service Award recognizes extraordinary contributions to the institution, higher education community, profession, and association. They are champions not only of the profession but of creating value for their campus and community by leveraging procurement to pursue new initiatives, lead others, and create value for their students, faculty, and administration.

MOMENTS IN TIME

The History Channel

* On May 20, 1609, Shakespeare’s sonnets were first printed in London by “procurer of manuscripts” and publisher Thomas Thorpe. While it is unclear how he acquired the manuscript, it may have been an illegal copy, and was apparently issued without the Bard’s permission, causing some damage to Thorpe’s reputation.

* On May 17, 1861, the first color photo, of a tartan ribbon, was taken by Thomas Sutton and Scottish mathematical physicist James Clerk Maxwell, by photographing it three times through red, blue and yellow filters before combining the images into a single color composite.

* On May 21, 1881, former schoolteacher, patent clerk and later pioneering nurse Clarissa Harlowe Barton, better known as Clara Barton, founded the American Red Cross. She served as its president for 23 years before retiring in 1904 at the age of 83. She was posthumously inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 1973.

* On May 16, 1947, singer Billie Holiday was arrested at her New York apartment on the charge of narcotics possession. When it came time to appear in court, her attorney advised her to plead guilty, thinking she’d likely be placed on probation and taken to a hospital for addiction treatment. She was instead sentenced to a year and a day in prison.

* On May 18, 1974, India conducted its first successful nuclear bomb test. The mission’s code name was “Smiling Buddha.” The bomb was detonated on the army base Pokhran Test Range under the supervision of several key Indian generals.

* On May 15, 1990, the “Portrait of Dr. Gachet” by Vincent van Gogh was sold for $82.5 million in just three minutes, becoming the most expensive painting ever sold at an auction. The artist had lived with Gachet following a spell in an asylum, and Gachet cared for van Gogh during the last months of his life.

* On May 19, 1996, the Space Shuttle Endeavour launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on its 11th mission. In 10 days and 40 minutes, the shuttle completed 161 revolutions and covered a total distance of more than 4 million miles before landing.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

* Competitive swimmer Tim Duncan grew up in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he trained for the 1992 Olympics, until Hurricane Hugo destroyed his island’s only Olympic-size pool. Since the only alternative was to swim in the ocean, and he was afraid of sharks, he decided to play basketball instead.

* Red Bull was developed in Thailand as an energy drink for truck drivers.

* Georg Gartner, a German POW, escaped his American prison camp near the end of World War II and lived in America for 40 years under a fake name before finally confessing his true identity on “The Today Show.”

* History’s longest prison sentence, a whopping 384,912 years, was given to a mailman -- for not delivering the mail.

* Johnny Depp dropped out of high school to become a rock musician. When he attempted to return two weeks later, the principal told him to follow his dream of being a musician.

* A shopping center in Zimbabwe uses an air conditioning system inspired by African termite hills. Ventilated and cooled by natural means, it uses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building its size.

* The largest-known bird nest belonged to a pair of bald eagles and measured 9 feet wide by 20 feet deep, with an estimated weight of 4,400 pounds.

* Colorblind people tend to have better night vision and can sometimes see a luminosity of colors that normal-sighted people can’t. As a result, the U.S. Army discovered that they could perceive camouflage colors that are difficult for those with normal color vision to see, giving them the unique ability to better make out hidden enemies at night.
