Each year, Cleveland State Community College holds its annual Student Awards Night ceremony to honor more than 100 students for academic achievements in their respective fields of study, extracurricular clubs and organizations and athletics. The event was scheduled for this week, and although it was canceled, the college wanted to honor those students earning awards for the 2019-2020 academic year.

“This ceremony is one of our great traditions at Cleveland State,” stated Dr. Bill Seymour, CSCC president. “It was disappointing not to shake each of these students’ hands as they received their awards, but nothing can take away the accomplishments of these excellent students. We are proud of every one that has been recognized.”
