Three LCC Students Named to 2024 All Washington Academic Team
Micah Boursaw, Isha Sarah Snow, and Lillian Williams-Chambers, members of the 2024 All Washington Academic Team, were recognized at a ceremony in Lacey, WA on April 25, 2024.
The program is a showcase for Washington's community and technical colleges because it honors the academic high achievers; students who have demonstrated a commitment to success in the classroom and in the communities where they live. This recognition demonstrates the state's commitment to scholarship and community service on the part of those attending the state's public community and technical colleges.
State team members are nominated by their community college presidents. Each All-Washington Academic Team member typically receives a scholarship funded by program sponsors (funding in any given year is determined by program sponsors). The state's public baccalaureate institutions and several private colleges also offer scholarships to award-winning transfer students.
