Seventy-three students are candidates for distinction as summa cum laude, 139 as magna cum laude and 229 as cum laude.
Whether overcoming tremendous obstacles or achieving academic excellence, these spring 2013 outstanding graduates have accomplished major personal goals and are prepared to begin meaningful careers as future leaders in their communities.
Colorado State will confer honorary doctoral degrees on Dave and Gail Liniger, founders of RE/MAX International Inc., at the College of Business commencement ceremony at 8 a.m. May 18 at Moby Arena.
When the Linigers founded RE/MAX in 1973, it revolutionized the way real estate companies were structured. Expanding from its Colorado beginnings to a global company with more than 90,000 agents in 88 countries, RE/MAX International Inc. transformed the real estate industry and become the largest privately owned real estate franchising company in the world. Over the years, the Linigers also have built an impressive record of community service, outreach and charitable giving while overcoming some formidable personal challenges as well.
