I wish to extend my congratulations to you upon your selection for special departmental recognition at the College of Arts and Sciences Awards Ceremony at the University of Vermont.

The presentation of departmental awards and Honors certificates is scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, May 15, 2015 in the Ira Allen Chapel. Please plan to arrive by 2:50 p.m. and sit in the front center section of white folding chairs to facilitate your participation in the ceremony. Family members should sit in the pews. I ask that all students receiving recognition be dressed appropriately (e.g., no jeans, flip flops, baseball caps), as photos of the award winners and faculty presenters will be taken. A brief keynote address will be delivered by Professor of History Sean Field.

A reception for students, family members, guests, and faculty will be held in Billings immediately following the Awards Ceremony.

If you plan to attend this event, I request that you RSVP no later than Wednesday, May 6th by contacting Craig Wells at craig.wells@uvm.edu or 656-3702.

Congratulations and best wishes for continued success.

Sincerely yours,

Dr. Antonio Cepeda-Benito, Dean
