 Steven Staffa, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard J. Staffa of Milton, was named to the dean's list at Bates College during the first semester of the 2013-2014 academic year -- a distinction earned by students whose cumulative grade point average is 3.71 or higher.

"Because we are an intellectually rigorous college that values our students' commitment to hard work, we are deeply proud of our dean's list honorees," said Matthew R. Auer, vice president for academic affairs and dean of the faculty at Bates. "They have earned distinction by excelling in critical thinking, clear reasoning and articulate writing -- proficiencies at the heart of a Bates education."

Staffa, who is majoring in mathematics at Bates, is a 2011 graduate of Milton High School.
