BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southeastern Conference announced that 26 Vanderbilt student-athletes have been named to the 2011-12 Winter Academic Honor Roll.
The four Vanderbilt sports recognized on the honor roll were men’s and women’s basketball, bowling and swimming. In total, 398 student-athletes were named to the Winter Academic Honor Roll, which is based on grades from the 2011 spring, summer and fall terms.
Any student-athlete who participates in a Southeastern Conference championship sport or a student-athlete who participates in a sport listed on his/her institution’s NCAAâ€Ë†Sports Sponsorship Form is eligible for nomination to the Academic Honor Roll. The following criteria should be followed: (1) A student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 or above for either the preceding academic year (two semesters or three quarters) or have a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution.

(3) Student-athletes eligible for the Honor Roll include those receiving an athletics scholarship, recipients of an athletics award (i.e., letter winner), and non-scholarship student-athletes who have been on a varsity team for two seasons. (4) Prior to being nominated, a student-athlete must have successfully completed 24 semester or 36 quarter hours of non-remedial academic credit toward a baccalaureate degree at the nominating institution.
