MANHATTAN — Kansas State University Vice President for Student Life and Dean of Students Pat Bosco has selected 14 Kansas State University students for the Dean of Student Life Outstanding Graduating Senior Award.
Inaugurated in 1999 and sponsored by the K-State Parents and Family Association, the award recognizes seniors for their significant contributions to the university. Staff members in the Division of Student Life nominate students they find deserving of the award. Final award winners are selected by a committee of student life staff members who then make recommendations to Bosco.
"A significant and powerful ingredient in our K-State brand is outstanding student ownership in every aspect of our school," Bosco said. "While we are recognizing these 14 students, there are hundreds more who care as much about student life and our university community."
The following students are recipients of the honor:
From Greater Kansas City: Taj Brimmer, senior in mass communications, Kansas City; Madeline Frankel, senior in communication studies, Lenexa;Carlos Morales, senior in architectural engineering, Olathe; Jordan Reinhardt, senior in communication studies, Overland Park; and Maxwell Braasch, senior in biology, Prairie Village.
