The Gatton College of Business and Economics held its annual Honors Day on Friday, April 14, to celebrate the outstanding achievements of its students and organizations.

The event recognized six Gatton outstanding seniors who excelled in their respective fields. The honorees were: Kayla Griesbach, Destin Hardesty, Adam Julian, Haylie Paulin, Trevor Payne and Elly Piatt. Two of the outstanding seniors were selected by the dean for the prestigious honor of Dean’s Award for Excellence.

In addition, UK’s American Marketing Association chapter was chosen as the student organization of the year. This organization demonstrated a commitment to excellence in academics, community engagement and professional development.

The event also serves as a chance for students to nominate and recognize some of our Gatton faculty and staff for outstanding service and commitment. This year, students chose Shawn Stewart as the student-nominated staff of the year and Jordan Moffett as student-nominated faculty of the year.
