School of Computing graduates Tristan Curd and Laurel Carder were among 14 Huskers who earned awards from the University Honors Program at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. The students were selected from among 200-plus Honors graduates during the 2023-24 academic year.

The Honors Program collaborates each year with Nebraska’s undergraduate colleges to recognize an Outstanding Honors Graduate from each college. The nine students who earned this award were selected based on their contributions to, and involvement with, both the Honors Program and their respective colleges.

Four students were also recognized for outstanding leadership within one of the Honors Program’s registered student organizations: Honors Ambassadors, Honors Program Student Advisory Board, Honors Peer Mentor Leaders and the Dr. Michael W. Combs Honors Scholars.

The following School of Computing students were recognized with awards:
• Tristan Curd, computer science, May 2024, Combs Honors Scholar
• Laurel Carder, computer science, May 2024, Outstanding Honors Ambassador and Outstanding Honors Graduate: College of Engineering
