The Dean's List is a significant achievement and is a reflection of the university's high standards for academic excellence.
On March 30, 2023, the University of St. Martin hosted a special event to honor and recognize the academic achievements of three of its top-performing students, who had made the Dean's List in the Fall 2022 Semester. The students, Gordon Brandon, Keyon Lynch, and Sigorney Robinson, were praised for their exceptional academic performance and their commitment to excellence in their studies.
To make the Dean's List, students are required to be enrolled in a full-time degree program, achieve good grades in all their subjects, and maintain a high average grade, known as a GPA, of 3.20 or higher.
At the event, Dean of Academics, Wycliffe Smith, congratulated each student on their outstanding achievements and commended their hard work, focus, and dedication in pursuing academic excellence. He emphasized the importance of discipline, perseverance, and a strong work ethic in achieving success, and urged other students to follow the example set by these top performers. He also encouraged the students to continue striving for excellence and to remain committed to their academic goals, as they are the future leaders of Sint Maarten and the world.
Dr. Carmona Baez, President of USM, also expressed his pride and admiration for the students' impressive achievements, highlighting the importance of academic excellence as a cornerstone of the university's mission to provide high-quality education and nurture the academic potential of its students.
The event was also attended by various Division Heads of the university. Their presence highlighted the university's commitment to excellence and its role in nurturing the academic potential of its students. The presence of a few family members also added a personal touch to the event, underscoring the importance of a strong support system in achieving academic success.
The event was a celebration of academic excellence and showed how hard work and dedication can lead to success. It is hoped that more students will make the Dean's List in future semesters, and USM will continue to support them in achieving their academic goals.
The university is committed to providing high-quality education and preparing students for the challenges of the future. It is through the achievements of top-performing students like Gordon Brandon, Keyon Lynch, and Sigorney Robinson that the university's mission is fulfilled, and its vision for excellence is realized.
