This year’s additions to the nearly century-old Bronze Tablet at Illinois include 102 graduates from the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences.
Each year, the Bronze Tablet is inscribed with the names of new graduates and placed in the Main Library. To achieve this honor, undergraduate students must rank at the top 3 percent of each college’s graduating class and must have a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.5.
This year, LAS students make up about 42 percent of the University of Illinois’ total number of Bronze Tablet scholars. The first Bronze Tablet was created in 1925, with 14 names.
