Awards 

AIA Henry Adams Medal, Award

Each year The American Institute of Architects awards an engraved medal and certificate of merit to the top-ranking graduating student in each architecture program accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board. A certificate of merit is awarded to the second-ranking graduating student. These awards are provided as part of the AIA Scholarship Program.

Because of a tie down to the hundreths place in GPA, this award was awarded to the two students graduating with the highest GPA in their graduating class.
