Nine Science Students Among Top 20 Students at IUPUI

The IUPUI Alumni Council and the Student Organization for Alumni Relations recognized 34 School of Science students on April 13 at the annual Top 100 dinner.

Nine of those students were named among the Top 10 male and female students across the entire IUPUI campus. Those students are indicated in bold below.

The IUPUI Alumni Council and the Student Organizations for Alumni Relations (SOAR) sponsor the "Top 100" Student Recognition Awards. There were over 1000 nominations this year.  A panel of alumni, faculty and staff select the top students based on nominations by faculty and staff. The students who were selected were very strong in all three major scoring categories: scholastic achievement, collegiate and co-curricular activities, and  civic/community service.
