To even be considered as a candidate, students must be nominated by individuals who broadly represent the university community (such as the president, provost, executive vice president, vice provost, vice presidents and deans, student body president and the director of athletics.) Nominees are then asked to complete a formal application, provide an essay, separate recommendations and may be chosen to attend a personal interview with the selection committee.<\/p>\n<p>The Order of the Pegasus &#8220;recognizes exemplary performance by UCF bachelor&#8217;s degree students in the areas of academic achievement, outstanding university involvement, leadership, and community service. Master&#8217;s degree students, doctoral, professional, or MD students are selected separately based on academic achievement, professional or community service, leadership, and publication or research experiences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is a list of this year&#8217;s College of Sciences&#8217; Order of the Pegasus inductees\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Linh Anh Cart, College of Sciences and Office of Undergraduate Studies<\/p>\n<p>Amy Crawford, College of Sciences (Political Science) and College of Arts and Humanities<\/p>\n<p>Cynthia Florentino, College of Sciences (Political Science)<\/p>\n<p>Jessica Gottsleben, College of Sciences and Nicholson School of Communication<\/p>\n<p>Kaye-Alese Green, College of Sciences (Psychology)<\/p>\n<p>LaShaunda Hayes, College of Sciences (Political Science)<\/p>\n<p>Nicholas Simons, College of Business and College of Sciences (Sociology)<\/p>\n<p>Vu Tran, College of Sciences (Anthropology)<\/p>\n<p>Alexis Wansac, College of Sciences (Political Science)\u00a0and College of Arts &amp; Humanities<\/p>\n<p>All 20 winners of the Order of the Pegasus will be honored in a ceremony this spring.
