On Thursday, June 2, Goodwin College hosted the 2016 Graduation Awards Ceremony and Honor Society Inductions in the auditorium at the River Campus in East Hartford. This event was an opportunity for the College community — particularly faculty and school leadership — to recognize the achievements of its students prior to the Commencement ceremony on June 4.

Following welcoming remarks from Vice President for Academic Affairs Danielle Wilken (“You are the best of what we do every day.”), Goodwin president Mark Scheinberg and trustees chair, Maria Ellis, M.D., representatives of four honor societies — Sherrilyn Bernier (Tau Upsilon Alpha), Michael Murphy (Lambda Beta), Rebecca Straub (Phi Theta Kappa), and Ernesto Varela (Alpha Sigma Lambda) — welcomed the 2016 inductees. Following the inductions, awards were presented for academic recognition, achievement in student life, and exemplary leadership.
