Franklin College bestowed several awards at the Annual Student Involvement Awards ceremony on April 26. One of the highlights of the event was the unveiling of the Top Ten Seniors.
The recipients are chosen based on their academic excellence (a minimum of 3.0 grade-point average); leadership on campus, both inside and outside the classroom; and their embodiment of the college’s values. Due to a tie, the awards were presented to 12 outstanding seniors this year.
