Five Spears School of Business students were selected as Oklahoma State University Outstanding Seniors for the 2023-24 academic year by the OSU Alumni Association.

Spears School of Business Outstanding Seniors

  • Sarah Blumer, accounting (Monticello, Wisconsin)
  • Corinne Kissel, nonprofit and sports management (Northville, Michigan)
  • Austin McKay, accounting (Mansfield, Texas)
  • Cameron Shropshire, accounting (Norman, Oklahoma)
  • Lanie Varner, entrepreneurship and marketing (Ponca City, Oklahoma)

“These five seniors truly personify what the Spears School of Business is all about,” said Dr. Jim Payne, dean of Spears Business. “The Outstanding Senior award is one of the most prestigious honors on our campus. We couldn’t be more proud of these five leaders for their accomplishments as students, and we look forward to watching them flourish in their professional careers.” 

The Outstanding Seniors award recognizes seniors who show excellence through academic achievement; campus and community involvement; academic, athletic or extracurricular honors or awards; scholarships; and work ethic during their time at OSU.

The OSU Alumni Association Student Awards Selection Committee met with 58 Seniors of Significance selected in the fall of 2023, and chose 21 as this year’s Outstanding Seniors.

A private, limited-capacity reception honoring the Outstanding Seniors will be held April 15 at the ConocoPhillips OSU Alumni Center in Stillwater.
