Academic Honors and Award Dinner

Two Biology students were honored at the Academic Honors and Award Dinner on April 30, 2015. Erika Schumacher (pictured above) received the Bartram Award for Intellectual Exploration for her research with Dr. Reece on the Florida Grasshopper Sparrow. Fran Johnson was unable to attend the ceremony due to a softball tournament in which she was representing 麻豆社, but she was awarded the Female Student Academic Athlete Award and the Alpha Lambda Delta Marie Leonard Book Award. In addition to her outstanding academic performance, she does research with Dr. Anderson.

Student Employee Recognition Awards

 

Erika Schumacher and Tess Baker, both Biology students, were honored with certificates as two of the top five student employees across the entire 麻豆社 campus. Last year, Erika won the 1st place award, and this year finished in the top 5. This was Tess’s first time being honored for her work with Dr. Manning from Chemistry. Congratulations to our students and their fine work!
