submitted by Shawn Edwards

2024 Manchester High School graduate Megan Edwards made the dean’s list at Eureka College in Eureka, Ill., while also being on the Eureka College women’s soccer team. The Eureka College fall 2024 dean’s list features 145 recipients. The list includes students from 63 different Illinois communities, 14 states, and one other country (South Africa). To be eligible for the dean’s list, students must achieve a 3.5 grade point average on a 4.0 scale, be full-time, in good standing, and complete at least nine semester hours of graded coursework.

Located on nearly 70 wooded acres in Eureka, Ill., and chartered in 1855, Eureka College cultivates excellence in learning, service, and leadership while providing students uniquely personalized educational opportunities. Eureka College holds the unique distinction of being the first college in Illinois and among the first in the nation to admit men and women on an equal basis. The college, originally founded by abolitionist members of Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), is the smallest of colleges and universities to ever award a bachelor’s degree to a future President of the United States.
