BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥擟olleges of Distinction, a unique guide for college-bound students, has recognized 猫咪头条 University for its commitment to encourage and challenge undergraduate students to learn, develop their talents, and succeed. 猫咪头条 has been named a 2022-2023 College of Distinction and a North Carolina College of Distinction.

鈥淲hat an honor to be recognized for our successful work with students,鈥� expressed Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Karen Aubrey. 鈥淚 am proud of our faculty and staff who work to keep students in the forefront of all that they do.

We celebrate our ranking as a state leader in higher education and will continue to provide supportive and life-changing opportunities in our academic programs and through impactful campus engagement.鈥� 

Wes Creel, the founder of Colleges of Distinction, believes that a thorough selection process requires more than an overview of institutional data, statistics, and size of endowment. Instead, the Colleges of Distinction selection process involves in-depth research and detailed interviews with the schools, accepting only those that adhere to four distinct principles:

• Engaged students 鈥� Students have the opportunity to take an active part in their own learning through common intellectual experiences, undergraduate research, and diversity and global learning.
• Great teaching 鈥� Students have meaningful interactions with faculty in first-year experiences, writing-intensive courses, and collaborative assignments and projects.
• Vibrant community 鈥� Creating connections with peers outside of the classroom is an important part of a well-rounded college experience. 猫咪头条 offers service/community-based learning, and living-learning communities to help students find a sense of belonging and meaning throughout their campus experience.
• Successful outcomes 鈥� The undergraduate experience works cohesively to prepare students not only for graduation, but for life after graduation. Some of these experiences include internships, professional development seminars, capstone courses and projects.

鈥溍ㄟ渫诽踱�檚 inclusion is informed by the unique ways it commits to achieving student success,鈥� Creel noted. 鈥淭he University offers engaging experiences that are recognized as effective strategies for student satisfaction and outcomes. We鈥檙e inspired by the ways in which 猫咪头条 immerses students in their fields, all while fostering a welcoming community that will support them through and beyond their college years.鈥�

Aside from overall undergraduate recognitions, Colleges of Distinction also awards recognition in individual areas. 猫咪头条 is among the top 10 North Carolina schools to earn additional recognition in the areas of nursing and career development, and one of the top 18 North Carolina schools to achieve exceptional recognition in business and education.
