UW Gold 2007 Winners Named

Oct. 12, 2007 -- Six University of Wyoming students were selected as UW Gold winners for 2007.

They were announced at Thursday's Homecoming Sing, and will ride in the Homecoming parade and be introduced at halftime of the New Mexico football game on Saturday.

Cardinal Key, the junior class honor society, sponsors UW Gold, which replaces traditional Homecoming royalty. The students were nominated on the basis of continued success in academic studies, community service, and leadership. The tradition is a way for leading students to be recognized by their peers, the university and the state.

The UW Gold representatives for 2007, listed by hometown and major, are:

Cheyenne -- Stacia Berry, animal and veterinary sciences; Suzannah Carr, biology; Kelsey Ann Day, Spanish and international studies.
Evanston -- Ariel Calmes, English and French.
Green River -- Lori Petersen, zoology and physiology, pre-dental.
Powell- Clayton Elliot, economics and environment and natural resources.
