Milford Resident Recognized As A Top College Student
Molly Elizabeth Studer of Milford, a student at Judson University, was recognized as a Student Laureate by the Lincoln Academy of Illinois during a special ceremony Nov. 1 at the Old State Capitol in Springfield.
The Lincoln Academy’s Student Laureate Awards are presented for excellence in curricular and extracurricular activities to seniors from each of the state’s four-year, degree-granting colleges and universities, and one student from among the community colleges in Illinois.
At the Student Laureate Convocation, each student received a Student Laureate Medallion, along with a $1,000 educational grant and a certificate of achievement. This is the 40th year Lincoln Academy celebrated students’ excellence in Illinois.
