Each year during the application review process we identify individuals of extraordinary talent and promise for our Alumni Memorial Scholars program, the Benton Scholars program, and Summer Institute program.
Each student in these programs shows the potential to enhance our community through their engagement and contributions. Within a community of talented students, the scholars of these programs indeed set the standard for achievement and participation on campus.
Students for these three honors are selected by the admission committee without separate application or nomination and students are informed of their selection at the time of acceptance.
