“Our awardees are students who absolutely excel academically, and they make the most of what we do so well here. We love the classroom, but we know you have to get out of the classroom,” said Lewis. “Seeing students who have participated in or led student organizations, social fraternities, study abroad, service projects for our community, and co-ops and internships. It’s putting those things together, knitting them together that really deepens expertise, builds confidence and grows a network.”
