Georgetown University: School of Foreign Service in Qatar

The Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Qatar has released the names of its academic honors students for the Fall 2007 semester. The list of high performers is based on the student's overall academic performance during the previous school term.

"We are proud of all our students, who distinguish themselves in many ways. But as an academic institution, the core of our mission is learning, so we take special pride in those who stand out in the classroom. They are our honors students," says James Reardon-Anderson, Dean of the School of Foreign Service in Qatar.

As a part of the Qatar Foundation's Education City, students at Georgetown's Qatar campus receive the same demanding academic curriculum as their classmates at the home campus in Washington, DC. Twenty-seven students have received honors based on their performance during the previous semester. They were recognized at a dinner in their honor last week.
