Go to county and state directory

LAWRENCE — More than 5,000 undergraduate students at the University of Kansas earned honor roll distinction for the fall 2009 semester.

The students, from KU’s Lawrence campus and the schools of allied health and nursing in Kansas City, Kan., represent 99 of 105 Kansas counties, 46 other states and the District of Columbia and 40 other countries.

The honor roll comprises undergraduates who meet requirements in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and in the schools of allied health; architecture, design and planning; business; education; engineering; journalism; music; nursing; pharmacy; and social welfare.

In July, KU reorganized its fine arts programs. Music programs now have their own school. Visual art, dance, theatre, and film and media studies programs are in the new School of the Arts within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Design programs are in the School of Architecture, Design and Planning.

Honor roll criteria vary among the university’s academic units. Some schools honor the top 10 percent of students enrolled, some establish a minimum grade-point average and others raise the minimum GPA for each year students are in school. Students must complete a minimum number of credit hours to be considered for the honor roll.

The students are listed in the following format:

First name, last name, school or college, level (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior), gender, parents’ or guardians’ names, and high school. For students in the School of Allied Health, a level in school is not always listed.
