Twenty-four graduating seniors from the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences have been selected to the Senior 100 Honorary for their notable achievements.

LAS students from 13 majors, ranging from molecular and cellular biology to psychology, communication, history, Spanish and others, are among 100 seniors selected from across campus for the honor.

Senior 100, which is sponsored by the University of Illinois Alumni Association and the Student Alumni Ambassadors (SAA), is also intended to recognize seniors for their commitment to the future of the university.

“Senior 100 Honorary is a ceremony and reception that honors the most outstanding graduating seniors. This event recognizes not only the most successful students academically, but more heavily focuses on campus involvement and service,” SAA said in a statement. “This highly prestigious award allows hard-working seniors to be acknowledged for their commitment to the university throughout their four years on campus.”
