Congratulations to our Senior Bachelor of Science Students

On Thursday, April 24, the Dept. of Astronomy honored the seven matriculating senior undergrads at a brief pre-colloquium ceremony. The photo shows Director Buell Jannuzi with, from left to right, Kyle Pearson, Cassandra Lejoly, Spencer Wallace, Amanda Walker-LaFollette, Ian Cates and Lauren Biddle, (Christen Jones, not pictured). Undergrad Studies Program Coordinator Yancy Shirley also announced that Amanda Walker-LaFollette is this year's recipient of the Research Excellence Award, and Cassandra Lejoly received the Astronomy Outstanding Senior award. Four of the students then gave 15-minute colloquia each to an appreciative audience of professors, postdocs, grad students, and undergrads. All of the members of the Astronomy Department wish each of the seven undergrads the best of luck in their chosen future endeavors.
