Awards and Graduates 2018


While it is just the end of another year for many students, it is the end of journey for others. Whether they are off to graduate school, medical school, industry, or a gap-year of relaxation and soul-searching, our chemistry and biochemistry graduates are preparing to embark on a new adventure outside of IU South Bend - and most likely outside of South Bend itself. While we certainly congratulate all our graduates for their success, we would like to highlight those graduates - and their non-graduating classmates - who earned special recognition this year by winning awards and scholarships. Last night was an enjoyable time as Professor Gretchen Anderson (as Chair) announced our department's prize winners at the Honors Convocation of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.  Each student then each received a certificate acknowledging their achievement on stage from Professor Bill Feighery (as Associate Dean).
