THE
DISTINGUISHED SCHOLAR AWARD
The
Honors Program seeks to honor two current
Lenoir-Rhyne students who have distinguished
themselves as excellent all-around students.
The Distinguished Scholar is a student who
has achieved academically, while
contributing meaningfully to both the campus
and the community. Academic achievement
includes grade point average, quality of
thesis and/or academic work and any form of
scholarly activity (such as conference
presentation, musical performance, art
exhibition, etc.) Contributions to the
college and the community include leadership
and service, both broadly defined.
Two
awards of $500 each will be announced
at the Honors Convocation, Wednesday, April
29 at 9:20 a.m. in P.E. Monroe Auditorium.
