Joseph Hambleton Named to Cornell College Dean's List

2012 Apr 4

Joseph Hambleton of Parsons, a student at Cornell College, has been named to the Dean's list, earning honors.

Cornell named 36 students to the Dean's List for block five. Cornell names students to the dean's list three times a year: for the fall semester, which is made up of four three-and-a-half-week blocks; for block five; and for the spring semester, which is made up of four three-and-a-half-week blocks.

A grade point average of at least 3.6 on a 4.0 scale is required for this designation. "Highest honors" are granted to students with 4.0 averages; "high honors" are awarded to students with 3.8 to 3.99 averages; and "honors" include grade point averages of 3.6 to 3.79.

One of the 40 "Colleges That Change Lives," Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, is a national liberal arts college with a distinctive One Course At A Time (OCAAT) academic calendar. The OCAAT schedule provides students with intellectual immersion, academic focus, and unique freedom to shed the confines of the traditional classroom to study off-campus, pursue research, or accept an internship-all without missing out on other classes. Founded in 1853, the college's entire hilltop campus is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
