The Outstanding Senior Award and Outstanding Graduate Student Award recognize one graduating senior and one graduate or professional student for their outstanding academic performance, leadership and enhancement of the student experience. Strong academic performance is important, however, the primary purpose of the awards is to honor two students who are admired for their exceptional contributions to university life and service to the university.
