Student 'Who's Who' nominations due October
31 Nominations for "Who's Who Among
Students in American Universities and Colleges" and "Who's Who at
UTSA" are due Wednesday, October 31. The "Who's Who" national
program began in 1934 to honor students who demonstrate outstanding
achievement during their college careers. More than 2,300 colleges and
universities participate in the annual selection process. "The participation of UTSA faculty
and staff members in last year's 'Who's Who' program helped make it a great
success," said Dr. Gage E. Paine,
UTSA vice president for student affairs. "I ask for your support again
in selecting 150 UTSA juniors, seniors and graduate students to become
participants in 'Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and
Colleges.' " The 150 students also will be named as
participants in "Who's Who at UTSA," along with up to 20 freshmen
and 20 sophomores, for a total of 190 students selected for "Who's Who
at UTSA." The 190 students will receive a
"Who's Who at UTSA" certificate. The junior, senior and graduate
student nominees also will receive certificates from the national
organization. In nominating students, consider these
factors: scholarship, leadership, participation in extracurricular activities
and service to the university and local communities. Undergraduate student
nominees must be enrolled in at least 9 credit hours at time of nomination.
Graduate student nominees must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours at time
