Florida State University welcomed 35 new inductees into its prestigious Garnet & Gold Scholar Society this fall during an induction ceremony on Wednesday.

Established in 2010, the Garnet & Gold Scholar Society facilitates student involvement and recognizes undergraduate students who excel within and beyond the classroom in at least three of five areas: international experience, internship, leadership, research, and service.

To become an inductee of the Garnet & Gold Scholar Society, students must meet the engagement criteria and submit a synthesis reflection project in their final semester before graduation. Participants are recognized during graduation and receive a designation on their official university transcript, making the students more marketable to potential employers or graduate programs.

The inductees, along with their hometowns and academic major(s), are:
