DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) – Wallace Community College-Dothan (WCCD) has announced its 2025 recipients of the prestigious Alabama Community College System (ACCS) Chancellor’s Awards, recognizing four employees for their outstanding service, leadership, and commitment to student success.
This year’s honorees include:
-
Administrator: Martha Compton, Career Technical Associate Dean
-
-
Support Staff: Wendy Weston, Student Success Advisor
-
Academic Faculty: Todd Tolar, Biology

Technical Faculty: Dr. Rayanne Daniels, Interim Associate Degree Nursing Director
Each year, community colleges across Alabama select four exemplary employees—one from each category of administrator, support staff, academic faculty, and technical faculty—for the honor. Recipients are nominated by their peers and celebrated at the annual Alabama Community College Association (ACCA) Conference.
“The Chancellor’s Awards are among the highest honors bestowed within the Alabama Community College System, recognizing outstanding service, excellence, and dedication to our students and institution,” said Dr. Kathy L. Murphy, WCCD President. “What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that honorees are nominated and selected by their peers—our very own WCCD colleagues—reflecting the deep respect and admiration they have earned from those who work alongside them every day.”
The 2025 Chancellor’s Award recipients will be formally recognized in November during the ACCA Conference in Montgomery, joining other awardees from institutions across the state.
