Gwyneth Ella Baker of Bolivar and Kallie Renae Wilbanks of Pocahontas are two of 517 Northeast Mississippi Community College students who achieved a grade point average (GPA) of 3.5-3.9 on a 4.0 scale for the 2024 fall semester. That achievement has earned those students being named to the college’s distinguished Vice-President’s List.

Compared to the previous year, over 77 more students achieved Vice Presidential List status compared to Fall 2023.

Overall, 885 individuals were either named to the President’s List or the Vice-President’s List at Northeast for the 2024 Fall semester. Eight hundred and forty-seven (847) are from the Magnolia State, 23 live in Tennessee, 11 are from Alabama while Arkansas and Louisiana each had a representative on the honor rolls. Two scholars reside outside the boundaries of the United States and call Buenos Aires, Argentina and Johannesburg, South Africa home, respectively.
