Fifty graduating seniors were recently honored at a luncheon in Burke Library to thank them for their years of service to LITS. A special feature of the luncheon was the unveiling of books purchased in each student’s honor, based on recommendations by LITS staff. Student majors and interests are taken into account when selecting the books, and a book plate with their name is placed in the front of each item. These books will become part of the general collection.
Below is a list of the titles selected for each student.
