Students Earn Academic Honors at Dominican College Honors Convocation

On November 25, Dominican College students were recognized for academic achievement at the College's annual Honors Convocation. During the Honors Convocation Ceremony, students who were named to the Dean's List for one or more complete years were awarded a symbol appropriate to academic excellence, the tassel that graduates wear during commencement. These distinctively colored tassels signify the sustained quality of their academic work at Dominican. White tassels were awarded for superior achievement for one complete academic year. Red tassels were awarded for exceptional accomplishment in College studies for two complete academic years. Gold tassels were awarded to those students who have maintained outstanding academic records for three complete academic years. Honors Convocation also includes induction of students into Alpha Chi, the national honor society. These students have pledged themselves to both scholarship and service. Membership is limited to the top 10 percent of an institution's juniors, seniors, and graduate students.
