Every fall
and spring semester, each academic dean nominates a graduating senior
for the Alumni Association’s
Outstanding Graduate award. Nominations are based on leadership, scholarship
and service. An Association selection committee then interviews the candidates
and selects one overall Outstanding Graduate. The Spring
2011 recipient will be announced during the General Assembly Commencement
at 9 a.m. on Saturday in the Cajundome. Here's this semester’s standouts. |
