Students, faculty, staff, and special guests gathered in John L. Hill Chapel on Tuesday, April 23, 2024 to honor the outstanding achievements of our students for the 2024 Academic Honors Day ceremony.
"This is truly one of my favorite days of the year," said Provost Jonathan Sands Wise. "We get to celebrate the commitment and excellence of our students and our faculty, the culmination of our hard work throughout the academic year."
