Each year, the University honors and rewards the highest-ranking students in each of the academic disciplines, as well as those who have received special recognition awards.
The Lillian C. ’65 and George H. Albro ’65 Award in Education was established by George and Lillian (Brooks) Albro, who are lifelong educators and generous benefactors of WSU. This award is given each year to a junior or senior majoring in either elementary education or middle/secondary education with a GPA of 3.5 or higher. Preference is given to students who graduated from Leicester High School or are from the town of Leicester.
