Biochemistry Majors Selected to 2016 Franco's List!

Abi & Sam,

Congratulations on your selection to the 2016 Franco’s List!  We are proud of you!

Thirty University of Nebraska-Lincoln students were recently recognized as outstanding agents of character and integrity by being named to "Franco's List."

# # # # #

Students who attain the highest level of academic achievement are recognized by their academic dean through the Dean's List. Similarly, Franco's List – named after Juan Franco, the university's vice chancellor for student affairs – recognizes students identified as demonstrating the positive characteristics that are part of being a person of integrity.

Selection to Franco's List is awarded to students who represent six building blocks of character: caring, citizenship, commitment, dependability, open-mindedness and respect.

All of the recipients were nominated by a campus community member and selected by a council of their peers, the vice chancellor for student affairs' Character Council.

Recipients were announced at an awards ceremony Nov. 18.

The following is a list by hometown of students named to Franco's List with their year in school and academic major(s).
