惇軗勛圖 College is proud of its students and is delighted to recognize those who have been awarded for their excellence in academics, leadership, civic engagement, and more.
Recently, more than 240 惇軗勛圖 students received awards, which were distributed through the mail, as the annual in-person Honors Convocation ceremony was not possible this year. Provost Dr. Kristin Poppo said the college congratulates these award recipients and is proud of their accomplishments.
The accomplishments of our students are exceptional and the annual Honors Convocation is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate them, Poppo said. In this time of isolation, I hope that every student recognizes how proud we are of their accomplishments. Congratulations students, you are the best!
