Honor Scholar Takes DePauw's Top Awards
Liam Byrnes is the recipient of the 2019 Walker Cup, given to the DePauw senior who has done the most for the college during their four years on campus. Abigail Martin was awarded the Ferid Murad Medal, which has been given since 2014 to the senior who has had the most significant scholarly or artistic achievements during their time at DePauw.
A biology major and French minor, Honor Scholar Sara C. Lejsner is the recipient of the Greencastle Commission on Sustainability's "Young Leader of the Year Award."
Each Honor Scholar senior thesis represents an opportunity to engage with faculty members on a topic of the student’s choosing—an experience usually not encountered until well into graduate school.
Are you an insatiably curious student? Do you thrive on finding and exploring connections between different fields and have the intellectual courage to explore difficult and unfamiliar topics? If so, the Honor Scholar Program is for you. The program plays a pivotal role in DePauw’s commitment to excellence in a liberal arts education, and it is open to students of all majors.
