Holly Zuiderveen receives recognition for highest grade point average

2016 Dec 15

Twenty-seven Alma College students - 23 freshmen, three sophomores and one junior - were recently awarded the Presidents Cup. The students earned the honor by achieving the highest academic standing in their respective classes at Alma.

The tradition of the President's Cup was started nearly 50 years ago, in 1968, by Alma's ninth President, Robert D. Swanson. Students earning the honor receive a certificate acknowledging their achievement and have their name inscribed on the appropriate class (freshman, sophomore or junior) President's Cup trophy. The trophies are kept on permanent display in the Reid-Knox Administration Building on campus.

Freshman Holly Zuiderveen of Falmouth, MI was awarded the President's Cup for the accomplishment.
