Emily Schoening of York among 32 UNL students named to 'Franco's List' for character, integrity

2014 May 1

Emily Schoening of York was one of 32 University of Nebraska-Lincoln students who were recognized last month as outstanding agents of character and integrity by being named to "Franco's List."

Students who attain the highest level of academic achievement are recognized by their academic dean through the Dean's List. Similarly, Franco's List (named after Juan Franco, UNL vice chancellor for student affairs) recognizes UNL students identified as demonstrating the positive characteristics that are part of being a person of integrity.

Selection to Franco's List is awarded for each student's commitment to living a life of integrity in accordance with the "Show Your Red" movement and its six building blocks: citizenship, dependability, commitment, respect, open-mindedness and care.

Each semester, a selection committee receives a number of nominations for the award. The focus of the nominations is to recognize students for the actions that frequently go unnoticed in on campus and in the broader community.

All of the recipients were nominated by a UNL community member, and were ultimately selected by a council of their peers, the vice chancellor for student affairs' Character Council.

Schoening is a senior child youth and family studies major.
