Shaun Twomey of Tyler has been awarded the Wall Street Journal 2002 Student Achievement Award. Twomey graduated magna cum laude in spring 2002 with a bachelor of business administration degree in finance. The Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award is presented annually by the UT Tyler College of Business and Technology. Twomey was chosen, for the second consecutive year, by the business faculty. “Shaun E. Twomey is the first ever two-time recipient of The Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award at The University of Texas at Tyler. The award is given to the finance major with the most outstanding academic record. Shaun graduated with a perfect 4.0 grade point average. I don't remember ever having a student that was better prepared for each and every class than Shaun,” said Oris Odom, business administration chair and professor of finance. Recipients are chosen based on academic achievement, attitude, image, individual growth and potential. Each receives an individualized paperweight and a year’s subscription to the Wall Street Journal. The award was developed by the Educational Service Bureau of Dow Jones and Company in 1948.
