SPC Hosts its Spring 2025 Honors Convocation

St. Philip’s College celebrated the academic achievements of 1,729 students during its Spring 2025 Honors Convocation Ceremony on March 19, 2025, recognizing their dedication and excellence during the Spring 2024 and Fall 2024 semesters.

Student honorees were acknowledged in two categories: the Dean’s Honors List, which includes students with a GPA between 3.5 and 3.999, and the President’s Honors List, awarded to students who earned a perfect 4.0 GPA while enrolled in at least 12 credit hours. This year, 828 students were named to the Dean’s Honors List, while 901 students achieved a 4.0 GPA and earned a place on the President’s Honors List.

The words of the college’s founding president, Saint Artemisia Bowden, echoed throughout the ceremony: “Do something and do it well,” as St. Philip’s College President, Dr. Adena Williams Loston, emphasized the significance of the student's academic commitment.

“Students, you have created a firm foundation through your hard work and determination. It is our privilege to watch you soar,” said Dr. Loston. “You are laying the groundwork for future generations of your family to excel. You are the example of what is possible with hard work.”

Family members and friends were also recognized for their unwavering support in helping their students succeed. The event concluded with a presentation of certificates and refreshments.
