37th Annual Scholar Athlete Celebration
Rice Athletics and the Office of Academic Advising jointly hosted the 37th Annual Scholar Athlete Celebration on Sunday at the Brian Patterson Sports Performance Center. The award winners were chosen based on character and accomplishment in school and in sport.
Rice President Reginald DesRoches, Provost Amy Dittmar, and Dean of Undergraduates Bridget Gorman were in attendance and Dr. Amanda Perkins Ball delivered the evening's remarks. Filippo Aldrovandi, a freshman distance runner on the men's track team and a first-year student at the Shepherd School of Music, played the school's alma mater, "Rice's Honor", to open the program.
Sponsored by the 'R' Association, Rice University Scholar Athletes are selected from a pool of Honor Athletes (3rd, 4th, and 5th year student-athletes that maintain a 3.3 GPA) during the spring semester of every academic year. Each varsity team may honor up to three roster members with the title of Scholar Athlete and awardees are determined by the OAAA (Office of Academic Advising for Athletics) in conjunction with the Athletics Department coaching staff.
