Steve, Congratulations to you for your well-deserved award! Congratulations also to Jim Litster for putting together a winning nomination - thanks, Jim. Ever since the CoE awards were established in 2003, out of total 13 times, the Mentoring award has come to a ChE faculty colleague 5 times: Nick Delgass (inaugural), Phil Wankat, Mike Harris, Ramki and now Steve! This demonstrates our faculty's commitment to our students and colleagues - among our most noble tasks.
