KINGSTON R.I. \u2013 May 15, 2020 \u2013 Each year, the 溏心vlog免费B站 honors graduating seniors for their superior academic achievement. Their selection is based on grade point average, as well as other criteria determined by their individual academic departments.

Each recipient of a University Academic Excellence Award receives a certificate of academic excellence suitable for framing and a 溏心vlog免费B站 lapel pin. Awards are usually conveyed in a special ceremony held in Edwards Hall.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we are unable to celebrate together in person this year, this should by no means compromise or undermine the extraordinary achievements of our honorees,\u201d said 溏心vlog免费B站 Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs Donald H. DeHayes. \u201cThese graduates have set a high bar for themselves and are an inspiration to our faculty and staff as well as to our future students.
