OSU Alumni Association Outstanding Senior Award
(http://www.orangeconnection.org)
Each year the OSU Alumni Association recognizes outstanding graduating seniors at Oklahoma State University. Students receive awards based on scholarship, campus leadership and service to campus and community. The award is highly competitive and requires exceptional leadership and/or contributions outside of the student’s home department and college. Honorees must be multi-dimensional with accomplishments that suggest a future career with success at the highest level. Award recipients are recognized each year during the May commencement proceedings.
The number of students recognized annually has varied between 10 and 16. The total number of students honored since 1995 is 246 with degrees in 70 different majors. Sixteen of the honorees have been chemical engineers. As indicated below, only three other OSU degree programs (Agribusiness, Marketing, and Agricultural Economics) have produced more recipients.
Chemical engineering produces 1.0 % of the B.S. degrees awarded annually at OSU. However, our students have received more than 6.5 % of the OSU Outstanding Seniors awards since 1995. The Schools of Agricultural Economics and Chemical Engineering rank 1 and 2, respectively, in terms of OSU Outstanding Senior award winners on a per capita basis.
We are very proud of our students who have been recognized as OSU Outstanding Seniors. Their success is a reflection of the exceptional intellectual talent, leadership and commitment to service that our students bring to class and cultivate on a daily basis.
