            University of Nebraska-Lincoln undergraduate students will be honored in conjunction with UNL's All-University Honors Convocation, 2 p.m. April 13 at the Lied Center for Performing Arts, including 32 seniors who will be recognized as Chancellor's Scholars, the university's highest undergraduate academic honor.

            Students are recognized at Honors Convocation for their cumulative academic achievements (compared with Dean's List, which is for one semester). Honorees include:

• Chancellor's Scholars, students who graduated in December or who will receive their degrees in May or August and have maintained 4.0 grade-point averages on all collegiate work at UNL and elsewhere;
• Superior Scholars, seniors graduating in the 2013-14 academic year who have been recognized at Honors Convocation each year of their enrollment;
• High Scholars, students other than Chancellor's Scholars and Superior Scholars who are in the top 10 percent of their class.

            Following is a list of Chancellor's Scholars by hometown. Information includes college, academic major(s), and parents' and spouses' names.
