Seven Tri-C Students Named to All-Ohio Academic Team

Seven students from Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®) were named to the All-Ohio Community College Academic Team, which comprises top students at the state’s two-year schools.

The All-Ohio Academic Team recognizes student excellence in academics, leadership and community service. Fifty-one students from across the state were selected for this year’s team on the basis of their outstanding records.

Tri-C had more students named All-Ohio than any other school.

The following Tri-C students — designated by campus — made the All-Ohio Academic Team:

Eastern Campus: Angelique Patton of Euclid (second team) and Kouame Kouakou of Warrensville Heights (third team)

Metropolitan Campus: Heidi Hubbard of South Euclid (third team) and Adekunle Popoola of Cleveland (third team)

Western Campus: Bruce Hyde of Parma (first team) and William Funk of Parma (first team)

Westshore Campus: Bethany Thomas of Lakewood (third team)

First-team honorees will receive $1,000 scholarships, while second-team members get $500 scholarships and third-team members $250. A recognition program for team members will be held in Columbus on April 20 during Community College Month.

The All-Ohio Academic Team program is supported by the Ohio Association of Community Colleges, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and Honda of America Mfg. Inc.
