MIAA ACADEMIC HONOR ROLL ANNOUNCED
The 2003/2004 Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) Academic
Honor Roll has been announced by Commissioner David Neilson and 97 Calvin
scholar-athletes have been named to the list.
The honor roll recognizes scholar-athletes who achieve a minimum 3.5
grade-point average (on a 4.0 scale) for the entire 2003/2004 academic year.
