The 2015 Seniors of Significance were honored during a reception at the Janelle Y. Hembree Alumni House.

The Arkansas Alumni Association honored its first class of Seniors of Significance during a reception at the Janelle Y. Hembree Alumni House on Jan. 31. Seventy-one graduating seniors, commemorating the university’s founding date of 1871, were recognized as well as their faculty or staff mentor.

The 71 students were selected from 400 nominations and represent each University of Arkansas undergraduate academic college, 11 states and two countries. These are exceptional seniors who combine academic achievement, leadership skills and substantial extracurricular campus and/or community activities

This year celebrates the 50th year of honoring a senior male and female undergraduate through the Senior Honor Citation program, as well as the re-established Razorback Classics program. Students selected as Seniors of Significance have the opportunity to update their application in the 2015 spring semester to be further considered for these awards. During the reception, the Seniors of Significance received a special honor cord to wear during graduation.
