In 2005, the Division of Student Affairs established the Diamond Award Ceremony to honor the highest levels of student achievement throughout the University.
For the 19th Annual Diamond Awards Ceremony, held on April 30th, we were proud to present 25 outstanding junior and senior students with the highest possible recognition from the Division of Student Affairs.
This year’s Temple students have accomplished extraordinary things, both inside and outside the classroom. In our state, region, country and worldwide, current Temple students and graduated Diamond Award Winners of the past continue to make us proud. They are simply the best-and-brightest.
The excellent work of these students has brought immense pride to our institution, and the entire student body. Read on to learn more about the 'Diamonds' in our community.
This is one of our most accomplished groups of students to date.
This year’s class of Diamond Award recipients:
- Possess an average GPA of 3.879, with all earning a 3.65 or greater.
- They are student leaders, fundraisers, journalists, activists, athletes, and scientists.
- They have contributed thousands of hours to community service and to our Temple Community.
- They have had their work published in professional journals, presented at professional conferences, and recognized for their scholarship at the national level.
They are simply among the best students Temple University has to offer!
