To great enthusiasm, the Vaughn College community recognized its top scholars on Thursday, February 17 at its semiannual Academic Honors ceremony. A lobby full of students, parents, faculty and staff celebrated the accomplishments of 246 students named to either the Faculty’s List, Dean’s List or President’s List.

“As our College president likes to say, ‘this is our all-star team,’ ” Senior Vice President Dr. Sharon DeVivo said in beginning the ceremony. “Welcome to the All-Star Game.”

The hour-long ceremony recognized those students whose grade-point averages were between 3.50 and 3.67 (Faculty’s List); 3.68 and 3.84 (Dean’s List); and 3.85 and 4.0 (President’s List). Students received individual certificates to applause at every name.

“It means a lot,” said sophomore Lukasz Wasiak, a President’s List scholar majoring in airport management. “It takes a lot of time and dedication; we all spend a lot of hours studying.”
