2023 spring semester graduates, Dean’s List and Bronze Tablet honorees named

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has announced 8,209 Dean’s List students, 253 Bronze Tablet honorees and more than 10,500 graduates for the 2023 spring semester. 

Dean’s List eligibility is limited to the top 20% of a student’s college class or curriculum. To be eligible, students must complete at least 12 academic semester hours taken for a letter grade.

University Honors and inclusion on the Bronze Tablet are the university’s highest honors for graduating students. Honorees, who are the top 3% from each college’s graduating class, must have a total grade-point average of at least 3.5 (out of a possible 4.0), although in recent years an average as high as 3.9 was needed to make the list in some colleges at Illinois.

The first Bronze Tablet, bearing 14 names, appeared in 1925.

A total of 10,513 students graduated in May. Among the recipients:

Editor’s notes: This information is available on this site for approximately one year. Inquiries regarding Dean’s List and Bronze Tablet honorees from prior years should be directed to the student’s college or school of enrollment. Students may request degree verifications from the Office of the Registrar degree verification website. Employers and background-screening firms may request degree verifications from the National Student Clearinghouse.

The addresses listed are provided by the students. You may wish to check the Champaign and Urbana listings for students from your area who may have given a campus address as their home. The lists will not include graduates added after June 30 or Dean’s List honorees added after June 12.

Dean’s List recipients with incomplete residence information are advised to access the self-serve system and check whether any of the data fields were left blank or contain conflicting data.

Announcements Portrait of Tony Leggett

Tony Leggett, Nobel laureate and theoretical physicist, dies

Theoretical physicist Sir Anthony James Leggett, widely recognized as a world leader in condensed matter physics and for his pioneering work on superfluidity and the quantum mechanics of macroscopic systems, died March 8. The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign professor was 87 years old.

Life Sciences In his lab, microbiology Professor Wei Qin shows off a culture tray and a colorimetric assay that highlights the microbes’ metabolic activity. Qin’s work focuses on an abundant microbial group that populates the deep ocean where warming and iron limitation have a major impact on ocean circulation and climate change.

New study finds deep ocean microbes already prepared to tackle climate change

Deep-sea waters are warming due to heat waves and climate change, and it could spell trouble for the oceans’ delicate chemical and biological balance. A new study demonstrates that the microbes may already be adapting well to warmer, nutrient-poor waters. Researchers predict that these surprisingly adaptable archaea will play an important role in reshaping ocean chemistry in a changing climate.
