Jordan Koloski Receives Moving-Up Day Award from St. Lawrence University

2015 May 4

Jordan J. Koloski of Lebanon received an award at St. Lawrence University's Moving-Up Day ceremony, which was held on April 25 in Canton, New York.

Koloski is a member of the Class of 2016 and is majoring in biochemistry. Koloski graduated from Lebanon High School. Koloski was presented with the Class of 1934 Scholarship: Chemistry, which these awards are based primarily on academic achievement and attitude toward learning with evidence of interest in becoming a broadly well-educated person as well as excelling in the major academic discipline. One award is given in each of the following academic disciplines: English, history, economics and chemistry.

Moving-Up Day celebrates student achievements in academics and co-curricular activities. It is a campus tradition dating from 1869, when it began as "Tree Holiday," to add trees to the campus landscape. In more recent times, the day evolved into an occasion for the recognition of student achievement and a symbolic "moving-up" of students to chapel pews vacated by students a year ahead of them.
