Waukesha Native Wins Award at Flagler College

Flagler College senior Meghan McNulty of Waukesha, WI was recently presented with a Distinguished Student Award in Spanish.

The awards are given to students who, in the judgment of faculty, best represent their major or minor in terms of academics, citizenship, service and the spirit of the discipline.

"These individuals represent some of the very best that Flagler College has to offer," said Dean of Academic Affairs Alan Woolfolk. "They exemplify the excellence that should be and is the heart and soul of higher education."
