This Fall, FSU College of Communication and Information proudly awarded scholarships to 99 students.
The Scholars and Stars event, formerly known as the Scholarship and Awards Program, was held virtually this year due to the pandemic. The annual event is an occasion to recognize donors and scholarship awardees, as well as recipients of the CCI Leadership Board’s faculty and student leadership awards. Scholars and Stars was held via Zoom on November 17, and the recording of the event can be viewed here.
We thank the generous donors for their commitment to the success of students, and send our congratulations to the students selected for scholarships and the faculty and student leadership awardees.
