  • Distinguished Alumnus Award
    Recipients of the Centralia College DISTINGUISHED ALUMNUS AWARD Since 1925, Centralia College has maintained a strong tradition of academic excellence and opportunity. Over the years, more than 130,000 students have turned to the college to help them reach their educational or training goals. Since 1978, the college has honored an alumnus each year for his or her achievements. We proudly present the recipients of the Centralia College Distinguished Alumnus Award. 2021 Distinguished Alumni The Watterson Family For the first time in award history, a family has been named the recipient of the annual Distinguished Alumni Award from the Centralia College Foundation. All four Watterson siblings – Ed, Bill, Marilyn, and Jim – attended Centralia College and have gone on to build strong careers and a legacy of service. Clarence and Doris Watterson raised their four children on a dairy farm in the Salzer Valley in Centralia. The children worked on the dairy as kids and paid their way through college. The three boys ended up in construction. Ed Watterson (CC Class of 1955) has been a superintendent at Schwiesow Construction since 1979 and built much of the Centralia College campus. Bill Watterson (CC Class of 1961) was a basketball standout, who went on to earn bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and start one of the largest construction companies in Alaska, Watterson Construction. Jim Watterson (CC Class of 1973) earned his bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from the University of Washington and worked all over the west before joining Watterson Construction in 1989. He is now the company president. Marilyn Watterson Weinstein graduated from Centralia College in 1963 and earned a bachelor’s degree in business education from Washington State University.
