Washington and Lee University, founded in 1749 as the Augusta Academy, is the nation’s ninth-oldest institution of higher education. Located in Lexington, Virginia, Washington and Lee bills itself as one of the premier liberal arts colleges and universities in the United States. The school seeks to develop the capacity of its students to think freely, critically and humanely and to conduct themselves with honor, integrity and civility.
The President’s List represents the top echelon of students among full-time, degree-seeking undergraduates, as determined from those with at least 24 Washington and Lee-graded credits contributing to their grade point average.
