Don’t be a dick.

Congrats op

We're really supposed to be saying congrats to OP who couldn't be bothered for 21 years to email her school to ask about an award she received in the mail?

You may have won a book award for the highest grade in a particular first year law school class. Not all law schools participate. Not a big deal.

Shortly after I graduated I got a package in the mail, slightly damaged and inside it was a plaque with Westgroup Outstanding Achievement Award. There was no letter or anything explaining what it was for. It’s called something slightly different now but it’s an award for having the highest gpa in an academic year

I googled it. doesn't exist, unless somehow related to WestGroup in Irvine, CA. So what is the new name?

CELEBRATE your achievement!!!!!!! Highest gpa - that is awesome.

OK.

There was absolutely no explanation what it was for. I looked online 15 or so years ago and there was nothing other than people listing they won it

Why didn't you ask? Seems like it would make sense to find out what it is to see if it was worth putting on your resume when you were looking for jobs.

I see the pissy Cheerio brigade is up and at ‘em today!

Sounds like a an honor - congrats!

Congrats! Better late than never!!

Because it was some promotional award from Westgroup? It wasn't really from your law school. I'm sure there was a deal in the software purchasing contract that the student with the highest gpa would get that award. It was sent out without care or regard to who you were.

Also, what difference does it make now? 21 years later?
