Dear All, Congratulations to Bryan Boudouris for his promotion to Associate Professor rank with tenure. Bryan, we're so proud of all your accomplishments, in every area of academic endeavor - and much more yet to come! Congratulations also to Mike Harris for renaming his Reilly Professorship to the Covalt Professorship. The former was a two-year appointment bridge-funded by the CoE until the Covalt Professorship, generosity of our distinguished alumnus Bob Covalt (BSChE '53, HDR '92) and Ginny Covalt, was fully funded - it was, last Fall.
