WAUKESHA – University of Wisconsin-Waukesha academic departments recognized the work of five students this year, conferring departmental honors at the Honors & Degree ceremony Thursday, May 19. Four students received achievement awards for their extracurricular efforts.
Faculty within a department may nominate students to honor for academic work that has been truly outstanding in that discipline. These awards are bestowed only when individual departments so designate; therefore, not every department gives honors each year.
Students receiving departmental honors this spring were:
Anthropology: Brian Whitmore, Wales
English Ashley Lane, Hartland
History Brittiny Albrecht, Oconomowoc
Philosophy Jodie Hlavachek, East Troy
Sociology Stacie Leutner, Waukesha
Achievement awards for significant contributions to student life went to:
Grover Scanlan, Waukesha, African American Union
Nicholas Mueller, Wauwatosa, League of Extreme Gamers Club
Joshua Abbey, Pewaukee, Media Services
Sharon Roberts, Waukesha, Yoga Club
