    Dr. Armine Hacopian receives award from Sen. Carol Liu

    GLENDALE-Every year, Senator Carol Liu selects several distinguished
    women for this award. Dr. Armine Hacopian was honored, along with
    four other honorees, from Senator Carol Liu's district which includes
    Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena; among other cities.

    "I am honored for this distinction, from such a vast geographic
    district," indicated Dr. Hacopian. This honor is very meaningful
    because Senator Carol Liu is very involved in California's higher
    educational issues and is a recognized leader in the Senate.

    Dr. Hacopian is the current President of the Board of Trustees at
    Glendale Community College. This is her third term as President and
    she plans on running for a fourth term as a trustee in April of 2013.

    According to the Senator, "Hacopian deserves this honor because she
    has been in the field of education for 40 years serving students
    as a teacher, ESL Specialist, grant writer, counselor and an
    administrator". In addition, while working full time, she has earned
    two Masters degrees, six credentials, and a doctorate in Educational
    Administration and Organizational Management. Also, she has been an
    adjunct faculty member at CSULA and CSUN.

    Furthermore, she has been on Accreditation Teams, appointed by the
    Accreditation Commission for California Community and Junior Colleges,
    reviewing and validating the programs of colleges seeking accreditation
    from the State. Also, Dr. Hacopian has served on doctoral dissertation
    committees assisting students in writing their dissertations and
    thesis.

    Dr. Hacopian was one of the co-founders of Chamlian Preschool,
    leading to many years of service in the Armenian Community by
    participating in the Western Prelacy Board of Regents. Consulting
    for LA County Office of Affirmative Action, training the trainers,
    and having written numerous training manuals have added to her vast
    experience and expertise.

    Currently, Dr. Hacopian is a board member for the Royal Canyon
    Property Owners' Association, helping her local community. She has
    served as a leader for many organizations, such as League of Women
    Voters, Glendale Literacy Coalition are to just name a few.

    More importantly, Dr. Hacopian, privately has helped numerous troubled
    young women in developing their educational programs and guiding
    their career paths, which makes her stand out among other dedicated
    community leaders.

    Since 2009, only 14 women have received such an honor for their
    immense contributions to their communities from Senator Liu's vast
    21st Senate District.
