Much of the rite of passage that is commencement week at the University includes recognition of students who have earned awards for their work during the past academic year.

Several student award winners, such as the recipient of the 2020 Spring Herz Gold Medalist (presented to Tyler Harris, the spring’s graduating senior who has the highest University grade point average with the most letter-graded credits), as well as the University’s Senior Scholars (top graduates from each school and college as well as their faculty mentors) were released earlier in the week.
