Maire Sullivan, a psychology major from Plymouth, Michigan, is the Distinguished Student
for 2023 from Trine University’s Jannen School of Arts and Sciences.
Sullivan was recognized with other Distinguished Students during the university’s honors ceremony on Thursday, May 4.
Sullivan graduated summa cum laude, earning a master’s degree in organizational leadership in addition to her bachelor’s in psychology. She earned a 3.99 grade point average in her undergraduate work and a 4.0 with her graduate degree.

She was captain of the women’s golf team, president of the Theta Phi Alpha sorority and president of the College Panhellenic Council.
