Westminster College to Honor Academic Achievers

Westminster College will recognize its academic achievers at the Spring Honors Convocation Saturday, April 29, at 11 a.m. in Orr Auditorium.

The program will begin with music by Kathryn Davison Miller, college organist, an invocation by the Rev. James Mohr II, college chaplain, and a welcome from Westminster College President R. Thomas Williamson.  Dr. Jesse Mann, vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College, will recognize the Dean's List Scholars, recipients of scholarships, prizes and awards, and students who have completed the College Honors Program.

Recognitions will continue with the tapping of Pi Sigma Pi members, and recognition of Lambda Sigma, Mortar Board, and Omicron Delta Kappa members, all honor societies for superior students at various levels of their academic accomplishments.

Dr. Neal Edman, dean of student affairs, will also present the McQuiston College Service Awards, given to the rising senior man and woman for unselfish service to the Westminster community during their college careers, and the Allen P. Splete Leadership and Service Award, given to a student who has provided sound leadership and selfless volunteerism to the curricular and co-curricular life on the Westminster campus. 

The service will conclude with the Alma Mater led by Darci Kuhlber, a senior music education major from Grove City.  A reception will follow in Orr Lobby.
