COLUMBIA, Columbia State Community College has announced its Spring 2026 president's and dean's lists, recognizing 123 students with president's list honors and 658 students with dean's list honors for their academic performance during the spring semester. The announcements reflect a student body that is showing up not just to earn certificates and degrees, but to do the work at a high level.
Columbia State President Dr. Janet F. Smith said students who achieve academic excellence at this level deserve recognition, noting that they maintain high performance while managing multiple obligations that for many include jobs, families, and extracurricular activities. To qualify for the president's list, students must complete 15 credit hours in a semester with a grade point average between 3.90 and 4.00. The dean's list requires 12 or more credit hours and a GPA of 3.50 or higher.
Columbia State serves students from across a wide swath of Middle Tennessee, including Maury, Williamson, Lawrence, Hickman, and Lewis counties, among others. The college's Hampshire Pike campus is a cornerstone institution for this region, one that offers a genuine pathway to career, credential, and transfer for students who might not otherwise have access to higher education. These honor lists are a reminder that the students walking through those doors are serious about the opportunity in front of them.
The full Spring 2026 president's and dean's lists are available at ColumbiaState.edu. Congratulations to every student named.
