In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, William Carey University’s Tradition campus hosted a virtual Honors Day Convocation on May 6. The annual event recognizes students for outstanding academic and leadership achievements.
“The faculty and staff of the Tradition campus of William Carey University wish to congratulate our Honors Day recipients,” said Dr. Cassandra Conner, dean of the Tradition campus.
“We all believe that staying connected to our students during this uncertain time is of great importance, and the virtual Honors Day ceremony is only one of the measures that we are implementing to stay connected until we are able to resume on-campus classes.”
WCU President Dr. Tommy King agreed: “I regret that these students will not be able to experience a formal awards ceremony. But they have worked long and hard, and it is incumbent on us to recognize their achievement.”
