ontra Costa College (CCC) has been blessed with many community supporters of retired faculty/ staff and friends who became honored philanthropists for our beloved college community. This summer, Phyllis (Sullivan) Howe, a retired Nutrition Instructor for the Registered Nursing (RN) Program entrusted over $350,000 to CCC upon her death.

Phyllis (Sullivan) Howe was born in 1914 in Columbia Falls Montana. She graduated in 1935 from Montana University with a degree in Home Economics. She later earned a Master of Arts degree in Home Economics from Mills College in Oakland.

Mrs. Howe worked as a dietitian for 9 years

in various bay area hospitals and began her teaching career in 1952 at Contra Costa College. She taught for over 30 years.

Phyllis Howe was ahead of her time as she was interested in the unnecessary consumption of pills, proteins and the consequences that junk foods have on society.

She regularly gave lectures on food misinformation or fallacies which were groundbreaking topics at the time.

Phyllis Howe also authored the book, “Nutrition for Practical Nurses,” and seven editions of the textbook, “Basic Nutrition in Health and Disease.”

Phyllis Howe passed away on July 20, 2012 (last year) at the age of 98. n
