The Oklahoma State University Alumni Association has named 47 students as OSU Seniors of Significance for the 2013-2014 academic year.

The Seniors of Significance Award recognizes students who have excelled in scholarship, leadership and service to campus and community and have brought distinction to OSU.

“This year’s Seniors of Significance have made a lasting impact on our campus and in their individual academic fields during their time at OSU,” says Chris Batchelder, OSU Alumni Association president. “We know they will continue to excel after graduation when they join the OSU alumni family.”

The 47 students represent the top one percent of the Class of 2014 including all six OSU undergraduate colleges. They were recognized at a public reception November 18 at the ConocoPhillips OSU Alumni Center.
