在圣里奥大学，我们的学生不仅要满足他们对学术工作的期望，还要学会批判性思考，学习新技能，培养成为好公民和负责任的领导者的品格。 3月30日，该校举办了学术卓越庆典，表彰本科生的学术和创造性成就。

“这是一个庆祝学生的日子，他们有一个值得讨论的研究项目，或写了一个值得讲述的戏剧或短篇故事，或提供了一个值得一听的音乐表演，或绘画或拍摄了一些值得一看的东西，”学术事务副总裁玛丽·斯波托博士说。 “换句话说，学术卓越庆典是一个展示每一位圣里奥大学学生在智力和艺术上所做的事情的机会。 请和我一起庆祝我们学生的成功。”

大学校园当天的课程表被修改了，这样下午就可以用在突出学生的作品上，他们口头或通过海报展示作品，由教师小组评判。 此外，学生的艺术作品展出，学生音乐家和歌手表演。

当天的重头戏是在当天结束时举行的颁奖典礼。

四个不同类别的奖项颁发给了来自四所大学中的三所学院和一所学院的学生。 Additionally, the 克拉拉麦克唐纳奥尔森学术优秀奖 was presented to a student based on grade point average among students who attended University Campus for four years.
