Torrance Local Lauded For Academic Achievement

California State University, Long Beach student Diaa Eldanaf, of Torrance, has been inducted into the Golden Key International Honor Society, a global nonprofit organization that provides academic recognition to college juniors and seniors in the top 15 percent of their class.

Membership in Golden Key, which also offers leadership development opportunities, community service, career networking and scholarships, is by invitation only.

"It is only fitting that a top academic achiever like Diaa be recognized by Golden Key," Alexander Perwich II, the group's CEO, said. "Our members are inspired and motivated not only to achieve exceptional academic accomplishments, but also to make a positive impact on our world."

Eldanaf has previously received an achievement award from the math department at El Camino College, where she earned her associate's degree in June.
