NEWPORT, R.I. – Caroline McDavid-Seidner of Westport, Conn., a 2012 Salve Regina graduate who will earn her MBA in May after completing the university’s five-year program, has been awarded a fellowship from Sigma Beta Delta International Honor Society for Business, Management and Administration.

McDavid-Seidner earned her bachelor of science degree in financial management, magna cum laude. As an undergraduate at Salve Regina, she was a member of Pi Delta Pi national French honor society and Sigma Beta Delta national business honor society.
