Barksdale earns SNHU honors

Holly Springs resident Kimberly Barksdale has earned a spot on the Southern New Hampshire University dean’s list for the summer 2026 term, the university has announced.

The academic recognition highlights full-time undergraduate students who maintain high academic marks over the summer session, which spanned from May through August.

To qualify for the dean’s list, students must earn a grade-point average between 3.500 and 3.699. Full-time standing requires completing at least 12 credit hours across a standard 16-week semester or through paired eight-week academic terms.

Barksdale joins honorees recognized by the Manchester, New Hampshire-based institution, a private, nonprofit university established in 1932. SNHU currently serves more than 200,000 online and campus-based students worldwide across approximately 200 degree and certificate offerings.
