After more than two decades of dedicated service, Southeastern Technical College (STC) is celebrating Twan Broughan, Administrative Assistant to the President, on her retirement, effective September 30, 2025.

Broughan began her career with STC in the financial aid and student affairs departments before serving the last 19 years as Administrative Assistant to the President. During her tenure, she worked under multiple administrations, supporting countless initiatives.

“Faith, family, and friends—that’s who she is,” said STC President Larry Calhoun. He estimated that in Broughan's 19 years with the President’s Office, “Twan organized and transcribed minutes for approximately 160 board of directors’ meetings and 80 foundation board of trustees’ meetings. She has assisted at least 40 new board members in becoming state-certified, planned 20 legislative receptions, worked 20 annual barbecues, and attended 20 annual Technical College Directors Association of Georgia (TCDA) and Technical College Foundation Association (TCFA) Conferences. She has been a steady hand behind so much of what we’ve accomplished.”

Broughan graduated from East Georgia College and Georgia Southern University and spent 18 years in Atlanta working for JCPenney Catalog before returning home. She then earned a Computer Application Specialist Technical Certificate of Credit from Swainsboro Technical College, making her an alum.

Reflecting on her career, Broughan shared, “When I moved back home to Kite, Georgia, I had no idea where God would lead me. As it turned out, He led me to STC, first as a student and then as part of the STC family. This part of my life’s journey has been such an incredible one. It is not often that a person gets to have two unbelievable careers that they love.”

She added, “It’s been 21 years since I began working with an incredible team of caring people who focus on assisting students on paths to better their lives through learning occupational skills. This team soon became my second family and has helped me through a lot in my life, both the good times and some tough times. During cancer, many of them drove me to treatments. After a terrible car wreck, thinking about returning to work gave me a goal to walk again. I thank my STC family for the love and memories that I take with me.”

“This new chapter will be caring for my parents, whom I love dearly, and my grandchildren, whom God blessed me with,” said Broughan. “I pray for continued success for STC and the thousands of students whose lives will be changed through Southeastern Tech.”

A retirement celebration was held on September 24 in the Boatwright Auditorium on STC’s Swainsboro Campus, where colleagues, friends, and family gathered to honor Broughan’s 21-year career at the college.
