UW-Stevens Point (Honors - Fall Semester 1977)

Certificates of recognition are being mailed to students who excelled scholastically during the fall semester at UW-Stevens Point.

But the number of people on the campus honor roll is significantly less than what it has been in the past because the UW-SP faculty has raised the gradepoint qualifying students for academic recognition.

Chancellor Lee Dreyfus said students with grade points from 3.75 (B plus) to 4.0 (straight A) are designated as scholars of highest honor. High honor citations are going to students with grade points from 3.5 to 3.74. Previously, honors certificates were issued for grade points between 3.2 and 3.39, but that category has been eliminated.

The following is a list of highest and high honor students by Clark County community:

Colby: Julie Jacobson and Mary Langus, both highest honors: and Dawn Olson high honors. Curtiss: Linda Krause, high honors. Granton: Robert Dudei, Rt. 2, high honors. Greenwood: Lisa Larson, 305 S. Main Street, high honors; and Kent Simonson, 323 White Street, highest honors. Loyal: Victor Dull, highest honors.
