Nine Converse College seniors have been recognized as being among the nation's top collegiate students, including Jessica Lee of Mt. Pleasant, SC.

Each year, Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges recognizes individual academic excellence on a national level. For selections, a student is recommended by a committee of Converse faculty, staff, and administration members on the basis of academic performance (a minimum grade point average of 3.0), accomplishments, and leadership in the community as well as the classroom.
