Bothell seniors David Street and Lacretia Taylor are among 40 undergraduate and graduate students who have been selected to receive the 2008 President’s Award at Washington State University. The students will be recognized at a dinner and program April 27 in the Student Recreation Center on the WSU-Pullman campus.

Street is a civil-engineering and Spanish major, and Taylor is public-relations major.

For more than a decade, the President’s Award has been bestowed annually to less than 1 percent of the university’s undergraduate and graduate students who exemplify exceptional leadership and service to the university and the community. Students are selected based on their leadership and engagement consistent with the university’s values of inquiry and innovation, character, teamwork and diversity.

The 40 students selected include undergraduate and graduate students from a wide variety of academic fields, from broadcast news to neuroscience, and includes students from around the state.
