Florida State University welcomed 113 new inductees into its prestigious Garnet & Gold Scholar Society this spring during a special ceremony on Tuesday, April 25. Congratulations to sisters Victoria Cardoso, Morgan Marissa, Allison Keeling and Ally Columbus!!

Established in 2010, the Garnet & Gold Scholar Society facilitates student involvement and recognizes undergraduate students who excel within and beyond the classroom in at least three of five areas: international experience, internship, leadership, research and service.

To become an inductee of the Garnet & Gold Scholar Society, students must meet the engagement criteria and submit a synthesis reflection project in their final semester before graduation. Participants are recognized during graduation and receive a designation on their official university transcript, both of which make the students more marketable to potential employers or graduate programs.
