Eastern Michigan University honored more than 820 scholarship
recipients and 18 exceptional educators at the Fifth Annual
Convocation of Excellence, Saturday, Oct. 7, at Pease Auditorium.
The event recognizes the achievements of EMU's top freshmen
and scholarship recipients, as well as area teachers and
counselors who help, inspire and motivate them to attend
college.
"This is a wonderful opportunity to publicly recognize
excellence in our students who have received our top academic
and athletic awards," said Bernice Lindke, interim vice
president of enrollment management. "It is also a
time to honor 18 outstanding high school counselors and
teachers who had a special and significant influence on
our student's lives."

of times candidates are nominated. Honorees receive
