After reading Dave Barry’s editorial titled “On The Swimsuit Front” I realized that women are their own biggest critics. As he addressed the issue of how self-conscious women are about their bodies‚ I found myself thinking the exact same thing.

It is a pleasure to nominate Dave Giles for the "Most Outstanding Person" award. He is a former alumni of Carl Sandburg College. My first impression of Dave came in 2012 when he gave hands-down the best speech on the importance of education that I had ever heard. He truly enjoys spending his time helping the community’s youth. He has also continued to live up to that impression of being a passionate man who is optimistic‚ supporting‚ and is as committed to children as he is to bettering our society
