The CNM Alumni Association awards Tony Trujillo with the 2009 Distinguished Alumni Award!
| The Central New Mexico Community College Alumni Association has selected the 2009 recipient of the Distinguished Alumni Award, Tony Trujillo, President of Holman’s Precision Surveying & Computing Products. Since 2002, this award is given to a former student of Central New Mexico Community College who has attained significant distinction personally and professionally that reflects CNM’s vision of “Changing lives, Building community.” In 1965, Tony enrolled at CNM, then known as Albuquerque Technical Vocational Institute, to take classes in Architectural and Mechanical Drafting and business courses, and today oversees Holman’s Precision Surveying & Computing Products, ranked in the top 200 nationally in the "Hispanic Business 500" and recipient of the "New Mexico Technology Flying 40" award. Tony is also passionate about CNM’s Geographic Information Technology program, which incorporates Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and land surveying. CNM’s Dual Credit program provides these training skills for high school students. |
For many, the road to lifetime achievement began at Central New Mexico Community College, formerly known as TVI. The CNM Foundation established the Distinguished Alumni Award in 2002 to highlight the outstanding accomplishments of our graduates. This prestigious award serves to recognize CNM alumni who have attained distinction in his or her professional field or life which reflects the mission and values of CNM.
