California State University, Stanislaus

Second-year graduate student Lisamarie Raimondo is the Stanislaus State recipient of California State University's 2022 Trustees' Award for Outstanding Achievement, the CSU's highest recognition of student achievement.

Stanislaus State proudly recognizes the outstanding academic achievements of students who have earned a place on the Fall 2024 Dean's List in the College of Science. This prestigious honor is awarded to students who have demonstrated superior academic performance by maintaining a grade point average of 3.5 or higher during the semester. The Dean's List is more than a recognition -- it reflects our students' determination and unwavering commitment to academic excellence. These high-achieving students exemplify discipline, perseverance and intellectual curiosity as they work to elevate their career trajectories and prepare to step confidently into the workforce. Their success speaks not only to personal achievement, but also to their readiness to lead, serve and make a meaningful impact in their communities and beyond. "Achieving academic excellence requires perseverance, discipline and a clear vision for the future," said Martina Ramirez, dean of the College of Science. "Our Dean's List honorees demonstrate the heart and tenacity it takes to thrive at Stan State and beyond."

Only one student per academic program receives this honor each year, and those students are awarded the Dean's Award of Excellence. Each program selected only its most exceptional student for this award. Each year, we look forward to the Outstanding Student Awards ceremony where we join together with students, their loved ones and our faculty, to celebrate your achievements. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are not able to gather physically, but we did want to ensure that you received your award as well as our sincere congratulations. The university remains committed to hosting commencement ceremonies at a time when it is safe to congregate once again and we look forward to celebrating with you at that time.
