The College Of Science and Technology hosted its annual Awards Ceremony and End of the Year Celebration on April 29, 2011, 12:00-3:30 pm at the New Science Building Atrium and Grounds. We were entertained with music provided by DJ Bluetooth, Christopher Edmund. The orchestral renditions of “Music for the Royal Fireworks” by George Frideric Handel and an old familiar hymn, “Amazing Grace” by John Newton were performed by the Texas Southern University orchestra director, Professor Anne Lundy, and student, Chanel Oji.
Awards presented to COST students, faculty, and staff were College Excellence Award, Dean’s Leadership Award, Outstanding Student Award, and Student Scholarship Recognitions. Students were also recognized for serving on the Dean’s Advisory Council and as College Student Ambassadors. Finally, Special Recognition of Faculty and Staff was given to all who participated in the college’s very successful annual Campaign Fund drive held by the University.
