Special awards, often named for past faculty members or students of their respective disciplines, were awarded to 31 students in 27 disciplines.
Of these 27 awards, seventeen were named and awarded not just for academic success but for personality traits-similar to the traits that made the person for whom the award was named so notable.
Many attendees commented on the quality and importance of the dinner, including Dr. Deirdre Egan, assistant professor of English, who said, "It's a very nice and very interesting event."
In his closing remarks, Marsden again congratulated all the honorees and thanked those who helped coordinate the awards.
