In recognition of outstanding academic achievement, the University of Southern Indiana dean’s list has been released for the spring 2020 semester.

Provost Dr. Mohammed Khayum announced a total of 2,311 undergraduates were named to the list. Semester honors are not awarded to master’s degree students or doctoral students.

Jackson County residents named to the list include Cynthia L. Edwards of Crothersville, Cherokee R. Scott of Freetown, Samuel L. Hoff of Seymour and Jolee A. Dean of Vallonia.

Undergraduate students must achieve a 3.5 or better grade point average on a 4.0 system to be named to the list. Students earning no incomplete or missing grades for the term and earning letter grades of computable point value (satisfactory/unsatisfactory and pass/no pass graded courses do not apply) in 12 or more semester hours with a semester grade point average between 3.5 and 4.0 are named to the list.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, students had the option to choose pass/no pass grading instead of letter grades. Students electing pass/no pass grading must have completed at least 12 credit hours of coursework with a computable point value (A through F letter grades) to be eligible for the dean’s list.
