Hello Friends! I have some really great news to report! On February 6th, 2015 at 8:30am in the morning, I was awarded Valedictorian of my Master’s Degree program at Full Sail University. This is a great honor because the Valedictorian is the student with the highest GPA among his or her graduating class and is an academic title conferred upon the student who delivers the closing or farewell statement at a graduation ceremony (called a valedictory).
I was also the Salutatorian of my Bachelors Program in 2013. The Salutatorian is an academic title given to the second-highest graduate of the entire graduating class of a specific discipline. Only the Valedictorian is ranked higher.
I am very proud and humbled to be able to say that I have now earned the two highest and most prestigious academic awards given by a university.
Work hard my friends!
