Detur Prize awarded to 84 sophomores
Detur Book Prize winners of the Class of 2007 were honored at a Feb.7 reception in the Faculty Room in University Hall. One of the oldest prizes at Harvard College, the prize is intended to honor and congratulate sophomores on the high GPAs earned their first year at the College.
The prize consists of a book chosen by each recipient, usually selected at the Coop. This book should be for pleasure, not a textbook, and should be something that will have lasting meaning to the recipient. Books selected by the prize winners are embossed with the Harvard and Detur seals, and a bookplate is placed inside the cover. The books were presented to the students at last month’s reception.
