Stephanie Hidalgo of Los Alamitos received a $2,500 GEICO Achievement Awards for outstanding academic accomplishments and campus leadership. Hidalgo currently attends the University of San Diego.
“The Achievement Awards program is a GEICO tradition that we are proud to uphold in support of outstanding undergraduate students across the country,” said Bill Roberts, GEICO president and chief operating officer. “Each one of this year’s recipients has proven that they have what it takes to be among the next generation of great leaders. We look forward to seeing them continue to succeed in their futures and careers.”
More than 25 years ago, GEICO launched the Achievement Award program to recognize undergraduate students for their accomplishments inside the classroom, around campus and in their communities. The program is designed to encourage continued academic success and a commitment to leadership and community service, and to provide some relief from school-related expenses for deserving students.
