Dr. Alexander Rosas, Assistant Professor of Political Science, presented the award.

Graduating magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Law and Society, Ha is a member of Mortar Board, Alpha Phi Sigma, Omicron Delta Kappa national honor societies, and is named to Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges 2013-2014.

Phuong Ha was awarded this year's Honor Graduate in Law and Society. This award is presented to the graduating senior who has best exemplified excellence in and commitment in the study of law and society. Dr. Alexander Rosas, Assistant Professor in Political Science, had this to say about Phuong, "His academic transcript is a force with which to be reckoned, and his resume is a veritable cornucopia of extracurricular activities, professional and leadership experiences and national honor societies. But what impresses me most about Phuong is his personal and intellectual transformation over his four years here at Western New England University." This fall, Phuong will be attending Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public affairs to pursue his Masters in International Relations.
