Academic Achievement Award

Awarded each year to the graduating senior majoring in American Studies who is judged by the American Studies faculty to show the greatest academic promise. The faculty considers several factors in addition to grade point average; foremost among these other factors are the quality of mind the student has shown in his or her career as an American Studies major. The student will receive a $500 award; a permanent plaque with the names of all award winners is on display on the 4th floor of Gordon Hall.
