2020 CHSS Outstanding Student Awards

KENNESAW, Ga. (May 5, 2020) — Each year, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences recognizes graduating (or recently graduated) students with our Outstanding Student Award. This highly prestigious honor is given to only one student in each degree-granting program who has distinguished themselves in the major field of study and in extracurricular, civic, work, and/or family contexts. Students are given the opportunity to choose one faculty member to honor who has been a significant influence and support to them during their education. Please join us in congratulating these outstanding students and their faculty honorees.
