Award named after former professor
By Lori Larsen
In honour of former Augustana professor, chair of science and professor emeritus Jonathan Mohr, who passed away suddenly in November 2020, the University of Alberta Augustana Campus has created a new student award, the Jonathan Mohr Service Award.
The award will be given to a student enrolled in the second or subsequent years of a Bachelor of Science at Augustana Faculty, with a satisfactory academic standing. Selection is based on academic standing, as well as demonstrated leadership, community engagement, volunteerism, and/or involvement in extracurriculars either at Augustana or within the community, to honour the great work that Professor Mohr did during his time at Augustana.
Professor Mohr attended Camrose Lutheran College (CLC) (now Augustana Faculty) as an undergraduate student from 1971-73.
He began teaching music at CLC in 1976, continued to pursue graduate studies. Mohr went on to be the choral conductor between 1978-88.
“A generation of choristers fondly remembers the sense of musicality and camaraderie he fostered, and also how he feigned ignorance of the goodnatured mischief being perpetrated barely out of the view of choral performance audiences,” said Augustana Chaplain Craig Wentland, in a memoriam tribute to Mohr.
Dr. Mohr continued his own growth and learning by successfully obtaining his PhD in computing science.
“His mind was well suited to the pattern-seeking nature of the discipline, and he became a rigorous and respected teacher of computing science. Jonathan often shared with colleagues his mantra which he repeated to himself as he walked to each class, ‘Be brilliant,’” remarked Wentland.
Mohr served as chair of the science department, advising many in their research and teaching careers.
“This award shall honour Dr. Mohr’s memory and, at the same time, recognize annually an Augustana student studying Science. Besides benefitting current Augustana students immediately, this award, then, shall also keep Dr. Mohr’s memory alive for generations to come,” said University of Alberta Augustana dean Demetres Tryphonopoulos
“Although I didn’t know Dr. Mohr personally, I have been made aware repeatedly of the immense impact that he had on this campus, and am grateful for his extraordinary service and contributions. I am also grateful to the department of science and office of advancement for carrying on Dr. Mohr’s legacy of leadership and his supporting of Augustana students to follow in his footsteps.”
For more information about this new student award, contact Bree Urkow of Augustana’s Advancement Office at 780-679-1131 or bree.urkow@ualberta.ca.
