LAWRENCE Department of Design students represented the University of Kansas at the 2021 National Student Show design competition and brought home the Best School Award, along with multiple individual honors. The winners were announced during a virtual ceremony in early April.
This is not the first time the KU design department has won the Best School Award, but the relatively small number of entries makes this year’s win particularly notable. The 2021 Best School Award was built entirely on the strength of the limited total entries. KU students won two judge’s choice awards, five best of category awards, and junior Erin Bugee was awarded Best in Show.
