- Scholars: Lots of recognition for students from Altadena: Caroline Lepesant has been named to the Dean's List at the Savannah College of Art and Design for fall quarter 2012. Full-time undergraduate students who earn a grade point average of 3.5 or above for the quarter receive recognition on the Dean's List. Miles Croonquist and David Bowerman have both been named to the Dean's list at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute for the Fall 2012 semester; and Morayo Odujinrin, daughter of Ms. Abisola A. Odujinrin of Altadena, was named to the Winter Term 2013 Dean's List at Choate Rosemary Hall in Wallingford, Connecticut. Choate Rosemary Hall is an independent secondary school enrolling 864 boarding and day students from 37 states and D.C., and 44 countries.
