UGA recognizes spring 2010 First Honor Graduates

Athens, Ga. – The University of Georgia bestowed First Honor Graduate distinctions on 16 students at the May 8 Commencement ceremonies.

UGA began recognizing First Honor Graduates in 1978 instead of designating a graduating senior as valedictorian. The university bestows the honor on students who maintained a 4.0 grade point average throughout their undergraduate studies.

At this year’s commencement, students graduated summa cum laude and ranked in the top 1 percent of their 4,000-member graduating class.

The honorees, their majors, parents and hometowns are listed below with a URL for photo download.
