Hotchkiss Scholar The highest honor conferred upon a graduating student from Lake Forest Graduate School of Management (LFGSM) is to be named a Hotchkiss Scholar. Hotchkiss Scholars are selected on the basis of outstanding academic achievement and demonstrated commitment to the spirit of excellence. Hotchkiss Scholar eligibility is limited to the top 5% of the graduating class, based on Grade Point Average (GPA) ranking.〔http://www.lakeforestmba.edu/Alumni/alumni_news_success/hotchkiss_scholars.aspx〕 The Hotchkiss Scholar award was established in 1984 in honor of Dr. Eugene Hotchkiss III, President Emeritus of Lake Forest College and former member of the LFGSM Board of Directors. Hotchkiss Scholars are announced at graduation because the final ranking of the graduating class is not known until after final exams are graded and the final GPA for each graduating student is calculated. Prior to the beginning of the graduation ceremony, the new Hotchkiss Scholars are presented with the Hotchkiss Scholars medallion, which is worn during the ceremony.〔:File:Hotchkiss Scholar Medallion - Obverse.jpg〕〔:File:Hotchkiss Scholar Medallion - Reverse.jpg〕 The new scholars are also announced from the podium during the ceremony.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iAXCn4S4uI 2011 Hotchkiss Scholars announced at graduation〕 Lake Forest Graduate School of Management hosts an annual recognition dinner to honor the Hotchkiss Scholars. This dinner is usually scheduled for October or November and typically held at the Lake Forest campus. All prior Hotchkiss Scholars are invited to attend.〔http://www.lakeforestmba.edu/upload/docs/hotchkiss%20happenings/hotchkisshappeningsoctober2005.pdf LFGSM Hotchkiss Scholar E-Newsletter, October 2005 Annual Recognition Dinner 〕 The guest of honor is Dr. Eugene Hotchkiss III, for whom the scholarship is named. This dinner features a cocktail reception, welcoming speech, buffet dinner, featured presentation or panel discussion, and introduction of the new class of Hotchkiss Scholars. The new scholars receive a certificate of recognition and a memento marking the occasion. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hotchkiss Scholar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
