Nominations Under Way for Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges

The Dean of Student Affairs Office is currently preparing for the Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. Faculty, staff and administrators are encouraged to nominate students they think deserve this award.

This award is available to seniors eligible to graduate in the 2010-2011 Academic Year (December, May, or August) who have at least a 2.75 cumulative grade point average and who have demonstrated leadership with campus or community involvement. Applications are evaluated based on the excellence of the student's academic record; character; breadth and depth of leadership and service to the University and community; and representation of/impact upon Truman. 

Who's Who recipients will be announced at the end of the fall 2010 semester. A luncheon is held during the spring semester in honor of the recipients and their families.

If you wish to nominate one or more students, please submit the names electronically at http://saffairs.truman.edu/web/form_builder2/form_builder.asp?testId=142 by Oct. 29. Please know that students perceive a nomination for Who's Who from a faculty or staff member as an honor in itself. Student ID numbers are appreciated with the nomination. 

Nominated students will be sent an application inviting them to apply for selection into Who's Who. The students nominated will most likely ask for a letter of recommendation in support of their application. Students must either submit the application electronically or return the completed application, including letter of recommendation, to the Dean of Student Affairs Office in the Student Union Building 3100 by Nov. 29.
