Join us in celebrating the exceptional accomplishments of our students whose commitment to excellence serves as an inspiration to us all.
Their success attests to the power of curiosity and the rewards of diligence. Each name listed on the President's List and Dean's List represents a story of personal growth, intellectual enlightenment and the triumph of hard work.
President’s List
In recognition of highest academic achievement, the President’s List is announced each semester. The President’s List is composed of students with a grade point average of 3.90 or better, provided no grade is below a ”C” and provided the student carried at least 12 hours of letter-graded courses. Students with incomplete grade(s) at the end of the semester are not eligible for the President’s List.
Dean’s List
In recognition of high academic achievement, a Dean’s List is announced each semester. The Dean’s List is composed of students with a grade point average of 3.50 to 3.89, provided no grade is below a ”C” and the student carried at least 12 hours of letter-graded courses. Students with incomplete grade(s) at the end of the semester are not eligible for the Dean’s List.
The community and family aspect makes LR rare. I have never experienced a group of people that are more a family than Bear nation. The support we get from the Hickory area is unlike any other school.
