Red, white and blue. Duty. Honor. Country. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard. MSM, UMR, Missouri S&T. Left. Left. Left, right, left. Through the years, Rolla graduates have stomped out their own unique cadence in the branches of the military. Stories from past decades all resonate with the same underlying message: our alumni who choose to serve do so out of a deep, abiding love for this country. I don’t have an immediate family member serving in the military, but I do have a childhood classmate serving in Iraq today. Many of us have some sort of tie to someone in the armed forces – someone we are thankful for and whose courage protects all of the freedoms we enjoy. This issue of Missouri S&T Magazine has given me great pause

to reflect on all that our service men and women have done, and continue to do, on behalf of all Americans. The importance of personal sacrifice becomes crystal clear in reading the stories of our alumni: from retired Maj. Gen. Robert Bay, whose military career began at age 17 and spanned 39 years, to Courtney Buck, who left a professional position at Missouri S&T and enlisted to protect and serve his country. Just one month ago we witnessed a historic presidential election that many countries can only dream about. This exercise in democracy is a testimony to the valuable contributions made every day by our armed forces. I ask that you join me in honoring our military alumni, their shared sense of common good, and their intertwined stories of service. God bless America.

The photo that accompanied the obituary for Edwin A. Zwald, MinE’44, on page 44 of the Fall 2008 issue was actually that of Robert O. Dietz, ME’44. Missouri S&T Magazine regrets the error.

Robert O. Dietz

1944

Robert O. Dietz, ME, was a member of Kappa Sigma, Phi Kappa Phi, Tau Beta Pi and Blue Key. He had a distinguished career as a ground test expert for Arnold Engineering Development Center in various capacities, including director of technology and deputy of planning. Mr. Dietz was a U.S. representative to NATO and chaired the organization’s wind tunnel working group. He was among the first to be inducted as an AEDC Fellow in June 1989. (Jan. 19, 2008)

Robert A. Pohl The memorial for Robert A. Pohl, ChE’42, that was published in the Fall 2008 issue read that he was president of his class. Mr. Pohl was actually president of his class in 1939. The president of the class of 1942 was Roland “Sid” Burberry, CE’42.

Letter to the editor I have to take Missouri S&T Magazine to task regarding the comment on page 3 that Jackling Gymnasium was demolished during the 1964-1965 academic year. My recollection is that the gym came down in the spring of 1966. The fall of 1965 was my first semester at Rolla. I registered for my first classes on the basketball court of Jackling Gymnasium the week school started in the fall of 1965. Then later that first semester I played intramural basketball games in Jackling Gym. I got my 1966 Rollamo yearbook out and it shows a picture of the class registration in Jackling Gym and there is a picture of an intramural basketball ball game between the Pikers and Beta Sig in Jackling Gym. I am not positive when the demolition started but I do not believe it started prior to December 1965. Pete Legsdin, Econ’70 Springfield, Mo.

Editor’s note: In researching the editor’s letter in the Fall issue, we referred to UM-Rolla: A History of MSM/UMR, by two former Missouri S&T Curators’ Teaching Professors of history, which lists on page 228 the date of 1965 for the demolition of Jackling Gymnasium. After reading Mr. Legsdin’s letter, however, we turned to Missouri S&T Assistant Archivist Melody Lloyd, Hist‘97 for additional insight. She found an article from the June 1966 issue of the MSM Alumnus about the “removal” of Jackling Gym and a photo of students watching the building come down. They aren’t wearing coats, the grass is green and there are leaves on the trees, all of which would indicate the photo was taken in spring 1966. Thanks, Pete, for setting us straight. And thanks, Melody, for uncovering the truth.

Keith Wedge alumni profile

From Boy Scout to brigadier general

What began as a casual hobby picking up rocks while visiting the western United States took retired Gen. Keith Wedge, GGph‘70, MS GGph‘71, PhD GGph‘73, from the Boy Scouts to the U.S. Army. In between, his fascination with rocks led him to Missouri S&T’s geology and geophysics program. Wedge attended Missouri S&T during the peak of the United States’ involvement in the Vietnam War. Like many of his fellow students he joined the Army ROTC program. Commissioned as an Army Reserve officer in 1970, he began active duty in 1974 after finishing his Ph.D. Wedge’s military obligation helped him put his education and passion for geology to use in geotechnical and military engineering projects in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and Central America. During his career, he searched for infiltration tunnels in Korea’s Demilitarized Zone, drilled for water in Egypt and built roads in Jordan. As director of a nationwide military Gen. Keith Wedge engineering organization, Wedge provided engineering services to Army commands around the world, including operations in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Somalia, Haiti and Bosnia. As a brigade commander, he sent a task force to Guatemala for recovery efforts after Hurricane Mitch in 1999. “I never expected to remain with the Army for more than 30 years when I was commissioned in 1970,” says Wedge. “It was the interesting and challenging assignments that I received around the world that kept 4

me active. I have had the opportunity to travel to more than two dozen countries and utilize the education that I received from Missouri S&T. I was also fortunate enough to have successfully commanded engineering units at all levels through brigade, again attributing this to my experience with leadership opportunities as a student.” Wedge retired from the military in 2004 and is employed by Advancia Corp. as a project manager and senior military analyst. He also teaches environmental geology in the graduate program at Webster University, serves as the executive vice president of the Fort Leonard Wood chapter of the Association of the United States Army and is on the national board of directors of the Army Engineer Association. Wedge feels a close connection to Missouri S&T, where he has served on the Miner Alumni Association board of directors since 2003. He is a member of the Order of the Golden Shillelagh donor society, serves as president of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity’s Educational Foundation and is vice chair of the Academy of Mines and Metallurgy. He and his wife, Bobbie, are also active in the university’s International Friends program. “It is a pleasure to live in Rolla and to remain active with the university, especially the Miner Alumni Association,” says Wedge. “I enjoy serving as a volunteer. My wife and I also enjoy activities with the students as well as with alumni.” Above: Brig. Gen.

The flagpole might be in a different place, and the flag has a few more stars, but Old Glory is raised and lowered by ROTC cadets on the Missouri S&T campus today just as it was back in 1873, when MSM’s first company of cadets was formed. As they march in formation, the echoing footsteps from the cadets’ polished boots remind all who hear them of the connections that tie Missouri S&T to the military. With two active ROTC units, degree programs for troops stationed at nearby Fort Leonard Wood, dozens of military research projects and a handful of graduates who have risen to the highest military ranks, Missouri S&T’s ties to the armed forces are rock-solid and well-documented. But the campus’s military connections, which extend back to its founding in 1870, weren’t always so distinguished. Founded just six years after the end of the Civil War, MSM – like other land grant institutions of its day – was required to teach “military tactics” alongside engineering, science and other coursework. This was due to “the lack of trained military leadership in the north, particularly,”

Reming ton i n 200 2

according to two Dartmouth University scholars, Gene M. Lyons and John W. Masland, who wrote about the origins of the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) in a 1959 Journal of Military Affairs article. By early 1873, the campus had mustered its first company of cadets. In April of that year, two of those cadets had a disagreement they settled the old-fashioned way: with a duel that sent one to the hospital and the other into custody. Lawrence O. Christensen and Jack B. Ridley, Curators’ Teaching Professors emeritus of history, recount the incident in their official history of the university. “Company rules required cadets to wear gloves when entering the armory or handling weapons,” they wrote. “When John McCown of West Plains walked into the armory and took possession of his weapon without gloves on, Sgt. Peter Blow ... ordered him to leave. The disagreement led to a duel and McCown shot Blow in the cheek and throat.” No word from the professors on what became of McCown after his arrest, but they do report that Blow returned to campus a few weeks after the incident. Later that spring, the young cadet was playing baseball one day (Continued on page 8)

NE OF EVE Military training at MSM ended abruptly in 1877, as the nation entered into an economic depression. The school, facing declining enrollment and revenue, disbanded its cadet company.

On Oct. 1, 1918, the campus established the Student Army Training Corps – the forerunner to the modern ROTC – and briefly became a war training center.

Two of the campus’s first instructors, Civil War veterans George D. Emerson (far right) and R.W. Douthat (right), joined the faculty.

With the United States’ involvement in World War I, all “physically able male freshmen and sophomores” were required to enroll in the re-established military tactics program.

The modern ROTC began at MSM in January 1919, two years after Congress established the program.

when he “hit a triple, ran to third, began coughing, and spit out the bullet that had lodged in his throat.” In the years that followed there were fewer duels, but the military continued to have an important connection to campus. The GI Bill of Rights, signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944, caused a huge influx of former soldiers into the ranks of MSM’s enrollment. Of the record 2,565 students enrolled in 1946, 1,800 were veterans. The GI Bill put money directly into veterans’ hands for their own use and made it possible for many of them to afford a college education. “The GI Bill was a godsend for me, as I received 100 percent of my education through it,” says Charles R. “Chuck” Remington, ME’49, MS ME’50, professor emeritus of mechanical engineering who retired from Missouri S&T in 1989. Remington was among the first enrollees from the GI Bill.

The swell of students the GI Bill brought to campus overflowed classrooms, laboratories and student housing. The campus responded by transforming the physical plant and class schedule. Fourteen Army barracks were transported from Fort Leonard Wood and used for student housing, temporary classrooms and warehouses. The last of these “temporary” buildings was razed in 1994. These days, Missouri S&T’s connections with the military are stronger than ever, thanks in part to the Army’s consolidation of military bases in the 1980s and 1990s. After the Army located its engineering and chemical schools at nearby Fort Leonard Wood, some 30 miles southwest of campus, the university began offering master’s degrees in engineering management, civil engineering and geological engineering to officers stationed there. The campus also collaborates on a number of research projects with the Army Engineering School and other outfits

As World War II ended in 1945, a new era in higher education was about to begin. Thanks to the GI Bill of Rights, signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944, about 1.5 million veterans returning from the war swelled the populations of college campuses across the nation.

1945 1943 The advent of World War II led to yet more changes in the program. All advanced ROTC cadets entered active duty in June 1943. After war’s end, the campus re-established Army ROTC as an engineeringfocused program.

UMR added an Air Force ROTC program in 1971.

UMR began offering graduate engineering degrees to officers at Fort Leonard Wood’s Army Engineer School.

at the fort. Research on explosives engineering and homeland security are among the projects being conducted directly at Fort Leonard Wood. In addition, Missouri S&T researchers in recent years have worked with the Army’s Chemical School at Fort Leonard Wood to develop new tools for future warfare, including sensors for detecting biological and chemical agents. Several Missouri S&T researchers work closely with the Army, Air Force and Navy. The work ranges from humanitarian efforts, such as the development of methods to defuse improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and to decommission land mines and nuclear warheads, to modern warfare, such as research to develop unmanned aerial vehicles and terrestrial robots. Work by Missouri S&T researchers and the Air Force to develop chrome-free coatings earned the university and the Air Force a share of the 2007 R&D 100 Award from R&D Magazine.

Also, one of the university’s largest research centers, the Center for Aerospace Manufacturing Technologies, is a partnership among Missouri S&T, Boeing and the Air Force. The work under way in the CAMT could result in future commercial and military applications. With its proximity to Fort Leonard Wood, emphasis on technology and historic military roots as a land-grant university, it would be “shocking” if we didn’t have strong ties to the military, says military historian John C. McManus, associate professor of history at Missouri S&T. Many graduates have enjoyed success in the military. On the pages that follow, you’ll meet a few alumni who are strengthening that bond between Missouri S&T and the armed forces.

MISSOURI S&T MAGAZINE | WINTER 2008

The Battle of Cassino Pass, the first large-scale battle of World War II between the U.S. Army and the German Army, began on a miserably cold, rain-soaked Friday in February 1943. As Germans advanced, Lt. Jerry Berry, a platoon leader in the 19th Engineer Regiment Combat, and his men – armed with dump trucks and engineering equipment – faced the daunting task of holding back the German forces, led by Gen. Erwin Rommel. The horrendous three-day battle in Tunisia left the 19th Engineers with 128 casualties, including Berry’s driver, Pvt. Clarence O. Fulton, who lost his life as he manned a 50-caliber machine gun in a foxhole on the line with Berry. Berry went on to serve in major battles in Sicily and Italy, and was wounded at the Battle of Monte Casino. Like many veterans of World War II, Berry, CE’49, didn’t share war stories or his photograph collection with his family when he returned home. He stayed in the Army Reserves for more than 20 years before retiring with the rank of major. But it took an additional 35 years for his son, Bob Berry, CE’72, to convince him to share some of those memories. Bob Berry completed the final draft of Crossings, a book detailing his father’s life, shortly before Jerry Berry died in 2005. “As he would tell me the stories, several really got to him and he would tear up,” Bob Berry recalls. “The 19th Engineer Regiment Combat enabled the U.S. Army to cross minefields, rivers, mountains and deserts all while fighting as infantry when the need arose. Fifty-nine soldiers of the 19th died along the way, including four of his close friends.” Growing up, Bob Berry remembers seeing his father go one weekend a month to Reserve meetings or spending a family vacation with his father’s unit for “summer camp.” “One of my most vivid memories as a kid was going to the Officer’s Club at Fort Leonard Wood on special occasions,” he says. “I not only got a kick out of seeing Army trainees in action, but the

best part was eating the biggest hamburgers I’d ever seen. But still, there were no war stories.” Jerry Berry didn’t need to talk about his military experiences to instill a sense of duty in his son. When Bob graduated high school in 1967, the Vietnam War was on everyone’s mind, including his own. “I had a deep belief in our country, freedoms we had, and I felt an obligation to do my part,” explains Bob Berry. “I went to ROTC for the first two years of school at Rolla and decided to go all the way with it.” After four years of military service stationed with an engineer battalion in West Germany, Bob Berry joined Burns & McDonnell as a project engineer and manager, eventually retiring as vice president and general manager for the company’s St. Louis operations. But his military way of life never fully left him. “There are a lot of lessons you’re taught in the military that you still abide by in business. You have to react pretty fast and follow your chain of command. And when the general tells you to tell others to dig latrines, you take yourself and go dig latrines.”

“There are a lot of lessons you’ re taught in th e military.”

H FI A O NTDOWN by Mindy Limback (limbackm@mst.edu) It’s T-minus zero, and as the main engine ignites, Lt. Col. Scott Peel’s mind begins to race. As commander of the range operations team at Vandenberg Air Force Base, he knows that now there’s no turning back. The 5,000-pound military satellite, attached to a Delta II-7920 rocket sitting on top of thousands of pounds of highly combustible fuels, leaves the Earth for its journey into space. And now all he can do is watch and wait for the satellite to separate from its booster vehicle. The Dec. 14, 2006, launch of USA 193 was Peel’s fourth. His three previous launches – an intercontinental ballistic missile test, a missile defense interceptor test and another satellite – had all been successful. But that didn’t lessen the anticipation of this mission. “Launching extremely expensive, unique or one-of-a-kind satellites is far from routine,” says Peel, EMgt’89. “It is the most stressful thing I’ve ever helped do, but it is also exhilarating and rewarding.” Only after all stages have fired is the immense pressure, built by each successive “go” call, replaced by euphoria for the range team, says Peel. “The ability to declare ‘mission success’ can take weeks or months depending upon the type of mission,” Peel explains. Fourteen months later, in a strange twist of fate, another Missouri S&T grad, Andrew Jackson, ECE’03, would start a launch sequence that would bring down the malfunctioning satellite (see page 13). “I’m not surprised that two Rolla alumni were working high-risk, technically demanding operations,” Peel says. “The U.S. military is looking for all different types of people with different educational backgrounds, but because the services employ many cutting-edge technologies, the appeal for graduates from schools such as Rolla is high.” Peel is stationed at Naval War College in Newport, R.I., where he is pursuing his third master’s degree, this one in national security.

Shooting a spy satellite out of the sky is the stuff of science fiction movies. For Andrew Jackson, petty officer second class in the U.S. Navy, it’s just another day at the office. Well, maybe not just an ordinary day. The damaged U.S. satellite was carrying toxic fuel. Last February, Defense Secretary Robert Gates made the decision to blow it up into little pieces before the whole thing slipped out of orbit and fell to Earth. Jackson, ECE’03, pushed the button that made it all happen. Most of the other military members aboard the U.S.S. Lake Erie didn’t even know about Operation Burnt Frost. “Very few people on the ship knew what was going on until they saw it on CNN,” says Jackson, who is originally from the Kansas City area. Jackson was among those who were critical to the operation’s success. A fire controlman in the Navy, he’s responsible for conducting missile launches. “I’ve done a whole bunch of these,” he later told the

Kansas City Star. “But there was a lot more tension this time.” Typically, Jackson is involved in training exercises in the Pacific Ocean that are associated with ballistic missile defense. He points out that satellites move a lot faster than a normal ballistic missile, and at a much higher altitude with a long trajectory. Modifications were made before they actually attempted to shoot down the doomed satellite. Jackson says he got the final order to push the button that launched the shot at the very last second. “If we would have waited any longer, it would have crashed to Earth,” he says. Instead, the pulverized debris fell harmlessly into the ocean. And, to alleviate concerns around the world that the United States might get into the business of shooting down other countries’ satellites, Jackson says the modifications used for this shot were immediately removed.

When he’s not working and living on his ship, Jackson lives on the island of Oahu. He jokes that he spends his time “protecting paradise.” Back in Rolla, as a student, Jackson enjoyed playing video games like World of Warcraft. But he says he doesn’t have much time for video games these days – now that he’s an actual missile commander in the real world.

Courtney Buck, Econ’03, was just finishing his senior year at Missouri S&T when the United States invaded Iraq. After graduation, he started work at Missouri S&T public radio station KMST as marketing manager, but the thought of American soldiers fighting overseas weighed heavily on his mind. “I’m intelligent and physically fit,” Buck says. “So many others like me were serving their country and I figured I should, too.” After a heart-to-heart talk with his family, Buck enlisted on June 2, 2004. The longest of his two overseas deployments took him to Afghanistan for seven months. His job as explosive ordnance disposal technician was to dismantle roadside bombs, IEDs and other explosive devices. Sounds frightening, but it’s the job Buck requested. “I’m an adrenaline junkie,” Buck says. “I love the excitement.” Most of his missions took place at night. “If the soldiers patrolling a village or mountainside found an unexploded device, my unit was called in to dismantle it – sometimes by hand. “Every time I successfully dismantled a bomb, that’s at least one person, one U.S. soldier or one civilian, that didn’t get hurt. I would feel like Superman the whole day. It’s a phenomenal feeling.” Buck also helped patrol the Pakistan border. Part of his job was trying to catch suicide bombers in the act. Occasionally they got past his patrol. “Our base was attacked by a suicide bomber at the gate,” Buck says. Fortunately, no U.S. soldiers were killed in the incident. “My team had to wade through the carnage

to find as many pieces of the bomb as we could. By matching fingerprints, we could determine who made the bomb.” Buck, now a financial advisor with his own Edward Jones office in Austin, Texas, says he gets just as big a rush from helping people as he does from the excitement of a mission. Among the medals Buck received for his service is the Outstanding Military Volunteer Medal. While on patrol in a remote Afghan village, Buck noticed kids running up to him patting their left forearm. The sleeve of his own left forearm is where he, like most soldiers, kept his pens. The kids, he learned, had schools in their village, but nothing to write with. Buck sent out an immediate call for help, emailing friends, family and church members. By the time he was finished, 300 pounds of school supplies had been delivered to the students. Buck’s active duty ended June 3, 2008. He will spend the next four years as a reservist, and he can be called back into active duty at any time. Some people might dread that phone call, but not Buck. “I wouldn’t cry a bit if they called me back,” he says. “I love it.”

: T G F E H TH IST RI N’ V An issue focused on Missouri S&T’s connection to the military wouldn’t be complete without a word from military historian John C. McManus, associate professor of history and political science. Missouri S&T Magazine staff sat down with McManus to ask a few questions. Missouri S&T Magazine: Are there similarities in soldiers’ experiences today versus decades ago? McManus: Some things never change and I don’t think they ever will. Fear, for instance, is pervasive. Each generation may deal with it differently, but it’s there in the tight clenching of the stomach, the bile in the throat. It never ever changes. American soldiers may sign up for patriotic or economic reasons, but when the bullets start flying, soldiers generally just fight for one another and it’s pretty uncomplicated. There is a great deal of dedication from people across varying backgrounds. There are differences, too. The soldier of the mid-20th century on is much more accustomed to being well fed, well clothed and equipped with the best weapons and complementary equipment than his 19th century counterpart. The expectation of the guy on the frontier might have been to make do, but that is no longer the case. photo by B.A. Rupert

Missouri S&T Magazine: How has fighting and strategy changed through the years? McManus: Fighting is always impacted by fire power. But at the end of the day, the average soldier on the battlefield is still the person who determines the outcome of the war. In spite of all of this incredible range of fire power, including nuclear weapons, it still comes down to a guy with a rifle in his hands. That hasn’t changed throughout history and I don’t think it’s ever going to change. Missouri S&T Magazine: What role, if any, does public perception play in strategy on the battlefield? Was the Vietnam War the first to show the average American graphic images of the loss of life?

McManus: Interestingly it wasn’t. In the 1860s, 100 years before, a couple of photographers, Alexander Gardner and Matthew Brady, went out and photographed the dead on the Antietam battlefield very soon after the battle. It was a horrible battle…still the bloodiest day in American history. Their photographs had an electric impact in the North when they were displayed. People in New York City were truly shocked. They had been raised on tales of guns and trumpets and they never considered what war really was. Vietnam just takes that older concept to another level because of the medium of television, especially color television. Seeing something in black and white has a different impact than full color. Think of how you react seeing the grainy black-and-white images of World War II versus the vivid living-color images of Vietnam and subsequent wars. It’s more real to you. In the Vietnam War, there was a graphic nature and people were shocked. If there was any uncertainty over whether the war was worth it or whether we needed to be there or what we were actually doing, these images had a pretty serious negative effect on public opinion. It’s horrible, but it’s needed in a free and open society so that people really understand what war is. Missouri S&T Magazine: It seems like patriotism among the average American was stronger during World War II than today. McManus: Most of our wars have been unpopular with a significant segment of society. For instance, the Revolutionary War. A third of the population was dead-set against it. Another third was kind of favorable toward the Patriot cause, but didn’t want to get involved. They wished there wasn’t a war. Seen in that context, World War II was just a unique moment in American history. There was a kind of unity among society. People interpret patriotism differently. Some would argue opposing war is being patriotic because they don’t think war is good for our

country. War has always been unpopular to some extent. It’s inevitable in a big, fractious country like this. Missouri S&T Magazine: What made WWII unique? McManus: We were attacked at Pearl Harbor and that is indisputable. There was no doubt. We knew who did it, why they did it and what needed to be done to them. People were in agreement. They realized that the Nazis and the Japanese fascists were a big threat to the United States and we needed to fight, like it or not. Prior to Pearl Harbor, Americans were a bit complacent. They didn’t like the Nazis and they didn’t like what the Japanese were doing in China, but that was “over there.” We didn’t have to worry. Of course, that all changed. Missouri S&T Magazine: In today’s global society, why do young men and women continue to choose military service? McManus: Economics is always a reason, but it goes deeper than that. There is a desire to prove oneself as free and mature; to demonstrate independence. Some are seeking a challenge; others want to do something that is bigger than they are. Patriotism, of course, is a strong reason. Young people tend to be idealistic. And young folks fight wars. It has nearly always been that way. McManus has published seven books on military history. His latest work, The 7th Infantry Regiment: Combat in an Age of Terror: The Korean War Through the Present, was published in May. This spring, McManus received the 2008 Missouri Conference on History Book Award and, in 2007, History News Network named McManus one of America’s Top Young Historians.

O I T A R G N ROBERT BAY

N. E G . J A M M O R F S I R O

story by Lance Feyh (lfeyh@mst.edu)

The patrons at McDonald’s have noticed us. A few of them eventually come over to thank the two uniformed soldiers at our table for their service. What these civilians don’t realize is that a third soldier at our table, an older gentleman in plain clothes, is an honest-toGod general who started his service to the country during World War II. “A lot of people have known me and never knew I was a general,” says retired Maj. Gen. Robert Bay, CE’49. “But at church, there is one Marine colonel, and when he sees me he still says, ‘Good morning, general.’” We traveled up here to Sullivan, the half-way point between Rolla and St. Louis, to meet Bay at the McDonald’s. Cadet Michael Tollison, a senior in mechanical engineering, and Capt. Chad Pense, assistant professor of military science at Missouri S&T, listen respectfully as Bay answers my questions and tells stories. Currently, Bay is telling us a story about being a 17-year-old soldier who didn’t know much about the pecking order in the U.S. Army. During his first week, he was assigned to a mess hall. He was aggravated to find out that, for the time being, he was supposed to be serving as a waiter. “I didn’t know much about ranks yet,” he says. “This officer was motioning me to come over, and I ignored him. Turns out, he was the company commander, a colonel.” The company commander was not happy when Bay finally went over to the table. “I told him I joined the Army to be a soldier, not a waiter,” Bay says. “Luckily, everybody laughed. That’s how my career started.”

MISSOURI S&T MAGAZINE | WINTER 2008

Bay spent the end of World War II in the Philippines. He helped build a training camp at the site where the Bataan Death March had ended earlier in the war. The first task was to Bay at the beginning move the bodies of of his military career. Americans who had died during that march and were buried at the site. Japanese prisoners of war were used to move the bodies to a U.S. military cemetery in Manila. After the war, Bay took advantage of the GI Bill and came back to Rolla to finish his degree in civil engineering. Then he resumed his career with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. All told, he served more than 39 years on active duty and in the reserves. His final assignment was as commander of the 416th Engineer Command. Cadet Tollison is listening to Bay intently now. Tollison will graduate this December and then embark on a full-time military career. He admits to us, at one point, that he wouldn’t mind being a general one day himself. “I’d like to make it to general,” he says. “I like to be in charge. But, first, I know I have to be a good follower for quite a while.” Tollison was an Army brat. Not long after 9-11, he looked up Afghanistan on a map of the world. He knew that he wanted to be a military man, just like his father, a colonel, and his grandfather, a Vietnam veteran. At Missouri S&T, Tollison tells us, “any time I have to spare has been spent on ROTC. ... I really wanted to do well in ROTC, so I put extra time in it.”

Right now, there are about 65 cadets who are active in Missouri S&T’s ROTC program, according to Pense. The university also has an Air Force ROTC program. When Bay was in college, ROTC was mandatory for young men. “The rest of us were veterans on the GI Bill,” he says. “We all wore surplus Army clothes to school.” Lots of things have changed. Bay points out that today’s military is made up entirely of volunteers, like Tollison and Pense, who want to serve. He also thinks women have brought new skills and experiences that need to be utilized. “We have the smartest - Maj. Gen. military in the history of the world,” he says. “They have to be smarter. They handle complex systems. ... In my day, battle lines were drawn. You worried about terrain. There were tanks, guns and ships. It was easy to know who was shooting at you. We knew where the battlefield was.” But much of what goes on in the military is still familiar enough that these soldiers have a lot in common and a lot to talk about, regardless of what generation they come from. Besides, Tollison, Pense and I can’t get enough of Bay’s stories. When he first became a general, the Army sent him to the Pentagon to learn how to act like a general. “I was at the Pentagon for orientation, a charm school for generals,” Bay says, laughing. “While I was there I discovered that an office was reserved for Gen. Omar Bradley to use on his rare visits to Washington. Somehow, I found out that he was present that day and I got to meet him. It was a highlight in my military career.” Bradley was a five-star general, the highest rank attainable in the U.S. Army. He told Bay that the key to success was to lead by example and to let your actions demonstrate that you care about soldiers. “I never forgot those words,” Bay says. By the end of his career, Bay, like Bradley, had earned the Distinguished Service Medal. In addition to his military service, Bay worked for the City of St. Louis, Laclede Steel Co. and Black & Veach.

He worked on the design of the World Trade Center, the construction of the Chain of Rocks Canal and Locks project, and the expansion of the Howard Bend Pumping Station. He is a former president of the university’s alumni association and past president of the Academy of Civil Engineers at Missouri S&T. A founding member of the UM Alumni Alliance, Bay is a generous supporter of his alma mater, contributing 58 years in a row. Bay is now retired, of course, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have anything to do. He went on mission trips to Kenya twice in the past two years to develop water supply Robert Bay sources and provide medical assistance. Upon the conclusion of our interview in Sullivan, Bay announces that he needs to head back up Interstate 44 for a meeting. It’s time for Pense, Tollison and me to go back to Rolla. As we are leaving the McDonald’s, a stranger sees the uniforms and stops Capt. Pense and Cadet Tollison in the parking lot to thank them for their service – and much of their service to America still lies ahead of them. Meanwhile, Bay slips into his vehicle without attracting, or commanding, any attention. The general drives off in the other direction, accompanied by a lifetime of honor, accomplishment and memories.

“A lot of people have known me and never knew I was a general.”

Hydrogen power on display photos by B.A. Rupert

Missouri S&T’s Hydrogen Fueling Station and E3 Commons had its public debut on Aug. 19 during a coast-to-coast tour of several hydrogen cars from eight major car companies.

A map of the nation’s hydrogen fueling stations shows the facilities dotting both coastlines. But you’ll see only one dot in the Midwest. That fueling station happens to be on Missouri S&T’s new E3 Commons. The site was a stop for several futuristic cars on a coastto-coast road trip last August to showcase hydrogen as an alternative energy solution. The tour, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation and eight car companies, gave the campus the chance to show off a bit of its own alternative energy initiatives. The Aug. 19 event served as the public debut for the hydrogen fueling station and hydrogen shuttle buses, as well as the E3 Commons’ building, where future research and student activities will take place. A structure made up of two recycled shipping containers will house Missouri S&T’s EcoCAR Challenge Team, which will re-engineer a Saturn VUE over the next three years as part of an international design competition called “EcoCAR: The NeXt Challenge.” The S&T group is one of two teams in the challenge selected to receive a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain. Other teams will be working with fully electric, range-extended electric, hybrid and plug-in hybrid propulsion systems.

For years, she recruited students. Now she’s helping them with their finances. Lynn Stichnote, Missouri S&T’s former director of admissions, became director of student financial assistance on Sept. 16. Stichnote replaced Bob Whites, who retired after 29 years on the job. Stichnote joined the Missouri S&T staff in 1989. “As a first-generation college student, I always wanted the opportunity to ensure that more students could afford a college degree,” she says.

The American Society for Engineering Education has recognized Stephen A. Raper, EMgt’85, MS EMgt’87, PhD EMgt’89, for his service to engineering management by presenting him with the Merl Baker Award. Raper, an associate professor of engineering management and systems engineering, received the award during ASEE’s annual meeting held in June in Pittsburgh. The award is named for the former Missouri S&T dean and chancellor who presided over a previous name change, from MSM to UMR in 1964.

Ming Leu, the Keith and Pat Bailey Missouri Distinguished Professor of Integrated Product Manufacturing, was named the newest fellow of the International Academy of Production Engineering during the academy’s general assembly, held in August in Manchester, England. In June, he received the Hideo Hanafusa Outstanding Investigator Award in Flexible Automation during the 2008 International Symposium on Flexible Automation in Atlanta.

Doctor No. 200 Naresh Sharma’s Ph.D. research on predicting and reducing warranty costs will likely benefit many companies in the future. But for now, it has helped Sharma earn a historic degree. In July, Sharma became the 200th person to receive a Ph.D. from Missouri S&T’s engineering management and systems engineering department. Sharma, PhD EMgt’08, successfully defended his dissertation, Naresh Sharma (left) and Madison Daily (right) which defines a new method to predict product warranty costs early in a product’s development, on July 29. Sharma has developed a new approach to Genichi Taguchi’s quality loss function, a mathematical formula that estimates the financial value of customers’ increasing dissatisfaction as product performance decreases. Sharma simplifies the approach and makes it more consistent by combining Taguchi’s three methodologies into one new function. The 200th Ph.D. comes 24 years after the engineering management department awarded its first Ph.D. to Madison Daily, PhD EMgt’84, who is now a professor emeritus in the department. “This is a significant milestone in the long and proud history of this department,” says William Daughton, chair of engineering management and systems engineering. “It illustrates the excellent scholarly work that we do.”

London calling When the British Broadcasting Corp. decided to explore what voters in the heart of America were thinking about the presidential election, they selected Missouri S&T as the site for a town hall-style forum that was broadcast worldwide on the BBC World Service radio program Newshour. The forum, held on Sept. 5, featured a panel made up of two U.S. representatives from Missouri (one from each major party) as well as a political science professor and a radio journalist from Springfield, Mo. The BBC’s Robin Lustig served as moderator as audience members questioned panelists on everything from energy policy to the future of education. “The voters of Missouri are an unusually canny lot,” the BBC reported. “In every single presidential election since 1904 (with just one exception), they have voted for the winning candidate.” As this magazine went to press, Missouri’s election results were finally made official. By only 0.1 percent, McCain won Missouri, making this the second exception to Missouri’s bellwether status.

Supermodelers

What do you get when you combine a team of seven students, one staff advisor, aerial photography and Google? A 3-D model of the Missouri S&T campus and the designation “supermodeler.” The students spent hours creating 3-D models of campus using Google software tools as part of an international competition sponsored by Google. The payoff came in July when the team learned it was one of nine winners of the 2008 International Model Your Campus Competition. Using Google SketchUp, a 3-D modeling program, and Photoshop, the team used highresolution aerial photography and floor plans of the campus to construct 3-D models of each building. Rules required the models to be accurate in scale and location, to focus on important identifying details, and to contain textures devoid of visual noise like trees, cars and people. A panel of industry experts selected the winners. The Missouri S&T team consisted of four architectural engineering students (Matt Knuth, Nick Salmons, Adam Benzabeh and Chris Krueger), two computer engineering majors (Nick Thomson and Dan Welty) and one aerospace engineering major (Zack Geiser). Their advisor was Glenn Cotita, a space planning technician in the campus’s physical facilities department. Cotita hopes to use the models developed for the competition to construct an online campus map that prospective students and their parents can use to take a virtual tour of Missouri S&T.

A free-wheeling solution to poverty

Harvesting grains is hard work in developing countries, and Michelle Marincel wants to help.

Pearl millet, a hardy grain that is abundant in even the harshest regions of Africa and India, is a staple for many of the world’s poorest people. But removing the edible seed from the chaff is hard work. Traditional threshing techniques usually involve women pounding the plant with mortar and pestle. Over the summer, Michelle Marincel, NucE’06, MS EnvE’08, helped design an ergonomic threshing machine to provide some relief to that back-breaking work. She was part of a group of students chosen to attend the International Development Design Summit at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The students joined professors and professionals in groups of 10 to work on projects aimed at addressing issues related to poverty. “A researcher provided panicles of pearl millet for us to roll up our sleeves and destroy as we struggled to understand the best way to remove the grains from the stalk,” says Marincel. “Ultimately, we discovered the physics behind millet threshing. We tried numerous iterations of threshing devices. We tried using rubber, brushes, vacuums, centrifuges and many odd materials to remove the grain.” They hit upon creating a machine that works like a bicycle. “The key we discovered is hitting the grains at high speeds in the right direction,” she says. “Our idea is that a woman on a bicycle could carry, on her back, an extra wheel for the purpose of threshing. When she reaches the field, she could turn her bicycle upside down and change out the back wheel for threshing. This gives mobility to harvesting.” Marincel says members of her group will stay in touch in order to prepare the bicycle thresher for field tests.

A lean, green manufacturing machine When corporate America first started talking about lean manufacturing in the 1980s and 1990s, they were looking at ways to cut costs while maintaining customer satisfaction. These days, companies are also interested in portraying themselves as environmentally conscious, but are concerned about the costs associated with green initiatives. According to two Missouri S&T researchers, manufacturers can be both lean and green by incorporating processes designed to conserve energy and minimize environmental impact with a lean manufacturing philosophy. Elizabeth Cudney, PhD EMgt’06, and Katie Grantham Lough, AE’02, MS AE’03, PhD AE’05, discussed the benefits of

meshing lean manufacturing with green initiatives during the Institute of Industrial Engineers’ 2008 Operational Excellence Conference and Expo held in Minneapolis in September. “Going green is a must for companies to stay in business,” says Cudney, an assistant professor of engineering management at Missouri S&T. “While the stigma of green initiatives is that they are costly and uneconomical, that is simply no longer true.” At the conference, Cudney and Grantham Lough, an assistant professor of interdisciplinary engineering, discussed how industries can link green initiatives to cost-saving manufacturing practices and calculate return on investment for alternative or renewable power systems.

Building an energy superhighway Missouri S&T researchers are part of a new research effort that aims to transform the nation’s power grid into an Internet of sorts for energy – a grid that will speed renewable electric-energy technologies into every home and business. Missouri S&T is one of five U.S. universities in the National Science Foundation’s Energy Research Center for Future Renewable Electric Energy Delivery and Management (FREEDM) Systems. The initiative was unveiled in September and is led by North Carolina State University. Universities in Germany and Switzerland are also involved. The center will develop technology that transforms the nation’s century-old, centralized power grid into an alternative-energy-friendly network that can easily store and distribute energy from solar panels, wind farms, fuel cells and other sources. The effort fits well with Missouri S&T’s expertise in power engineering, says Mariesa Crow, the Fred W. Finley Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and director of the university’s Energy Research and Development Center. Crow is Missouri S&T’s lead researcher on the project. Joining her are Badrul Chowdhury, Keith Corzine, Mehdi Ferdowsi and Jonathan Kimball, all on the electrical and computer engineering faculty, and Bruce McMillin, professor of computer science.

Hydrogen: the hype and the hope photo by B.A. Rupert

You probably won’t be able to drive down the highway in your own non-polluting vehicle that runs on hydrogen power any time soon. Nor will you be powering your whole house with hydrogenbased technology in the coming years. Someday soon, though, you might own a cell phone equipped with a hydrogenpowered fuel cell instead of a battery. The cell phone would come with an insert-ready hydrogen pack and a small solar array for charging. “We need to be realistic about what we can and can’t do with hydrogen right now,” says Scott Grasman, associate professor of engineering management. “In addition to some of the more Buck Rogers things that might happen in the future, we need to study some of the things we can do in the short term.” Grasman is one of the lead researchers working on a Missouri S&T study called “Hydrogen Fuel Cell Analysis: Lessons Learned from Stationary Power Generation” for the U.S. Department of Energy. The technology necessary to produce hydrogenpowered vehicles that only emit water does exist, but those kinds of vehicles are not

feasible for every day drivers right now, according to Grasman. The main drawback is cost. Grasman says vehicles that run totally on hydrogen fuel cell technology currently cost anywhere from $50,000 to $1 million. Grasman’s group is looking at ways to use hydrogen for more economically feasible uses, such as energizing back-up power generators, forklifts, various types of military equipment and consumer electronic items, including cell phones. Working with Grasman on the DOE project are Fathi Dogan, professor of materials science and engineering; Umit Koylu, associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering; K.B. Lee, professor of chemical engineering; and John Sheffield, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering. Grasman has also played around with the idea of using hydrogen fuel cell technology in toys. In fact, he’s got a small hydrogen car and a toy hydrogen rocket in his office. He says these kinds of gadgets will help the public understand how hydrogen technology works.

Bridget Williams:

A shirt of a different color

by John Kean (jkean@mst.edu)

photo by B.A. Rupert

Sophomore Bridget Williams is the easiest volleyball player to find on the floor. Just look for the player wearing a differentcolored jersey. Williams wears that jersey because she is the Lady Miners’ libero, a player who serves for the most part as a defensive specialist. While a team is limited to 12 substitutions during each set, the libero has unlimited entries. “Our job is to play defense in place of the front-line players,” she explains. “Since a lot of our outside hitters can play on the back row, it’s usually going to be for a middle blocker.” Except for a short stint as setter during high school, Williams has served as libero throughout her volleyball career, which began in the sixth grade in Topeka, Kan. She was one of 13 incoming freshmen who started the current Lady Miner volleyball program in 2007 and ranked 11th in the Great Lakes Valley Conference her first year with an average of

MISSOURI S&T MAGAZINE | WINTER 2008

4.4 digs per game. Through the end of September this year, Williams, a recipient of the Brackhahn Athletic Scholarship, was third in the GLVC in that department. But her contributions have not been limited to defense. During her freshman year she led Missouri S&T in service aces and has 36 in two seasons, the most by any player on the squad. Williams has also taken on a leadership role with the team, serving as co-captain this year. “It was an honor to be selected,” Williams says. “It’s a situation where I can be a leader for our team. We have a group of players that are close, but if they have a question for our coach or need someone to go to him with something, then I’m not afraid to go ask on their behalf.” And without a doubt, the Lady Miners know exactly where to find her. She’s the one wearing the different-colored jersey.

Lady Miner volleyball team ranks among top 20 in attendance

Missouri S&T ranks tops in conference

The Missouri S&T volleyball team was ranked 16th in the nation in NCAA Division II in home attendance during its first season of competition in 2007. The Lady Miners averaged 443 fans per home contest, which was the best mark in the Great Lakes Valley Conference. S&T had two crowds of at least 1,000 fans during the season, including the 13th-best single-game mark of the season with 1,200 spectators at the home opening victory over Drury. Missouri S&T had a total attendance of 5,311 fans in its 12 home matches, the highest net figure in the GLVC for the year. The national leader in home attendance was the University of Nebraska-Kearney with an average of 1,195 spectators per match, while Southwest Minnesota State and Washburn were second and third, respectively.

Missouri S&T is the top-ranked institution in the Great Lakes Valley Conference and among the top 20 schools in NCAA Division II for the second straight year in the National Collegiate Scouting Association rankings. The Miners are ranked 19th in the 2008 listing. The NCSA rankings rate colleges and universities at the NCAA Division I, II and III levels by averaging the U.S. News & World Report ranking, the U.S. Sports Academy Directors’ Cup ranking and the NCAA student-athlete graduation rate. A total of 291 institutions compete at the NCAA Division II level. The collegiate power rankings based off of the U.S. Sports Academy Directors’ Cup rating evaluate the strength of NCAA athletic departments, while the U.S. News & World Report rating recognizes institutions of academic excellence. The student-athlete graduation rates are based on those provided by the NCAA. This year’s top-ranked school is the University of California-San Diego. Missouri S&T was the top-ranked team in the GLVC in the 19th spot, with six other schools from the conference also finishing among the top 100. The others were the University of Missouri-St. Louis (24th), the University of Wisconsin-Parkside (39th), Quincy University (48th), Saint Joseph’s University (51st), Kentucky Wesleyan University (60th) and Drury University (92nd). Missouri S&T has been ranked among the top 100 schools in NCAA Division II in the NCSA rankings for the last three years. In addition to the collegiate power rankings, NCSA also provides recruiting education to high school athletic directors and coaches, as well as families of studentathletes who are interested in competing at the next level.

S&T softball players tour Austria Three members of the Missouri S&T softball program spent the summer touring Austria as part of a USA Athletes International softball squad. Head coach Don Kennedy, infielder Becky Davis, a junior in applied mathematics, and catcher Kassi Deibert, a sophomore in business and management systems, took part in the five-game tour of Austria as part of a national team that had several players with ties to the Midwest. That team was coached by Saint Louis University head coach John Conway and included two players from his own squad, Northwestern University pitcher Lauren Delaney and University of MissouriSt. Louis catcher Casey Dierkes. “This was a great cultural experience for Kassi Deibert (far left) and Becky Davis (far right) participated in the USA everyone involved,” Kennedy says. “Not only Athletes International softball squad did we get a chance to see how softball is in in Austria. another part of the world, but we got to experience how the people live there as well.” The U.S. team won all five of the games it played in Austria, including a win in a game against the country’s national team. In addition, the travel party got to see a number of sights in both Austria and the Czech Republic, including the home of Mozart, a World War II prison camp, and the St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague that took more than 600 years to build. “I can remember Becky saying one time that we should have our own architectural engineers come over and see what this is like,” Kennedy says. “This is the sort of trip I would recommend to any student-athlete who has the chance to do it.”

A centennial celebration

35 years later, building takes originally planned name When alumni got together more than four decades ago to launch the university’s first major fundraising campaign, they set a goal of completing a new building in time for the campus’s centennial celebration in 1970. They didn’t quite make their goal. Though the alumni raised more than $500,000 in private gifts for the $2 million construction project, the building wasn’t completed until December 1972. By then all the 100th anniversary hoopla had faded into memory. The building eventually became known as University Center-East. Today, the building houses classrooms and administrative offices and no longer serves as a student and alumni center. So this fall, campus officials renamed the building Centennial Hall, in honor of the original intent and to honor the wishes of the campus’s first major donors. That original capital campaign “was the beginning of an era” in which alumni and student support would play a more prominent role in campus construction, says Robert Bay, CE’49, who served on the Centennial Campaign Committee. Bay and fellow campaign committee member Richard Bauer, ChE’51, returned to campus over Homecoming to attend a reception in their honor at the newly christened Centennial Hall. According to Bauer, the steering committee consisted of class-year representatives recruited by Joseph Mooney, who attended S&T in the 1930s but never graduated. Mooney became a successful insurance salesman in University City, Mo., and eventually became that town’s mayor. He would host planning meetings over lunch in his office, and his recruits would call their classmates for donations. “There was nobody who was a champion for giving like Joe Mooney,” says Bay. Bauer said he was happy to donate to the cause. “I felt a sense of giving back” to the campus, he says. Even though the total funds raised – $570,000 – is small by today’s standards, Bauer and Bay believe that initial campaign was a testimony to the generosity of that generation of alumni. “This building is a testimony of where the university stands in the eyes of alumni,” says Bay.

Toomey Hall dedication postponed The dedication ceremony of Toomey Hall, originally scheduled for Homecoming, was postponed and will be rescheduled for April 2009.

Miner Pride

We got spirit, yes we do! The Miner Alumni Association hit the road last year with a new Miner Pride program, focused on talking with alumni to find out what gives them pride in their alma mater. After speaking with sections across the United States, they learned Missouri S&T alumni believe that an S&T degree is as good or better than that of a private institution. For alumni, that feeling of pride began when they were students and was fostered by their academic departments and social organizations. Once settled into their careers, alumni’s sense of pride was nurtured by being recognized as a prepared, hands-on, go-to people. Here are a few of the many comments alumni shared:

– “I’m making a difference for the country by teaching those who defend it.” – “Missouri S&T prepared me very well to be able to contribute in a meaningful and productive way to the companies I’ve worked for.” – “I was better prepared than most. I can stand up to anyone and understand at a much greater depth.”

– “I could make a difference as a leader in my field.” – “Others respected where I went to school.” The corporate world has many reasons to respect Missouri S&T. Campus success stories – focused on design teams, cutting-edge research and prominent alumni – make their way into the news. Most alumni reported that this added to the sense of pride they felt for their alma mater. Here are a few of their comments:

– “People all around the country and world know this small university because of its engineering.” – “The recognition Missouri S&T has in my field.” – “How aggressively Missouri S&T grads are recruited by Fortune 500 companies.” What do you think?

A Gala Affair

3. 1. Bob, CE’71, and Kim Brinkmann enjoy the antics of emcee Brad Hornburg, CE’69, during the evening’s live auction. 2. Jane Ruby, Ron Morgan, EMgt’78, Solar Car Team member Nathan Steckel, Greg Kellerman, ME’82, and Becky Kellerman enjoy fine food and good company at the Anheuser-Busch table. The company donated beer for the evening. 3. Steel Bridge Team member Levi Smith, Riley Pierce (husband of Helene Hardy Pierce, EMgt’83), and SAE Formula Car Team member Aaron Young catch up on current design team events. 4. Ted Weise, EE’67, Ed Schmidt, ME’67, and Robotics Team member Robert Adams discuss available funding opportunities. 5. Marilyn Schmidt and Ted and Sharon Weise enjoy the sunset at La Charrette overlooking the Missouri River.

There was a chill in the air as guests arrived at La Charrette, home of Bob (CE’71) and Kim Brinkmann, for the fifth annual Missouri S&T gala. The grounds were full of beautiful fall flowers and the late summer evening offered a perfect setting for alumni, friends, staff and students. This year, 120 people attended the dinner and auction, raising more than $90,000 to benefit the Student Design and Experiential Learning Center (SDELC). Over the last five years this event has generated more than $430,000 in support of the 10 teams. Many generous donors give live and silent auction items each year to help 1. raise the funds. Some of this year’s most popular items included trips to Mexico, Colorado and Alaska, and a weekend package to the Lake of the Ozarks. Other items included handcrafted furniture, Missouri S&T hand-blown glass, a NASA package, custom-made jewelry and several one-of-a-kind watercolor paintings. “This is a great event and I look forward to it every year,” says Chancellor John F. Carney III. “Missouri S&T is incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated group of alumni and friends who know firsthand what this institution does for young people.” The Missouri S&T SDELC is the umbrella organization responsible for S&T’s nationally recognized multidisciplinary design teams. Ten teams form the core of the center and operate with assistance from faculty, staff and administrators. These teams participate in industry and government-sponsored competitions and reflect S&T’s emphasis on experiential learning, which balances classroom learning with hands-on experience. Through this program S&T engages students more fully in their studies and produces graduates who are knowledgeable in both the concrete and theoretical aspects of their disciplines. Approximately 450 students participate 4. in a variety of student design and experiential learning experiences each semester. If you would like more information about the annual gala or the Student Design and Experiential Learning Center, visit design.mst.edu/gala. Each year alumni and friends donate unique and creative auction 5. items. If you would like to contribute something to next year’s gala, please contact Christy Higgins at 573-341-6359 or higginsch@mst.edu.

Businessman sees potential in electric car conversions Nick Barrack, EE’75, already owns a number of businesses in Rolla. But if things work out, he’ll soon be offering a new service to customers that could be in high demand. Barrack takes old gas-guzzling cars and turns them into fully electric cars. “The ideal situation is if you have a car that’s beginning to wear out, that’s the perfect time to convert it,” Barrack recently told the Rolla Daily News. The converted vehicles will go about 60 mph and can travel about 60 miles between charges. “I'd like to be able to convert vehicles for people who work at Fort Leonard Wood ... people who have to commute 50 or 60 miles to work,” Barrack says. So far, Barrack has converted two vehicles, an old truck and a small car. About a dozen 12-volt batteries are used in the conversions. If he decides to start a full-blown car conversion business, Barrack says it would take about two weeks for his team of mechanics and electricians to convert a vehicle from gas to electricity. The cost would be about $6,000, and it would take approximately three years for the conversion to pay for itself in fuel savings. Barrack currently owns four businesses in Rolla: CSE Construction; USA Tours, a charter bus company; USA Express, an airport shuttle service; and Central Dispatch, a company that monitors alarm systems.

1990 Steven Rist, Engl, completed 11 years as a graphic designer in the advertising design department of The Edwardsville (Ill.) Intelligencer, Edwardsville Publishing Co., a division of Hearst Newspapers. (continued on the next page)

Grad still fascinated by the essence of engineering Marty Blotter, ME’88, likes to keep his engineering options open. Sure, he’s worked for a number of companies that offered a lot of security; but he’d rather tinker with lawnmower engines and think up inventions in his own workshop. Over the years, Blotter has worked for government agencies and private companies. But he’s more content when he’s working for himself. He now spends his days tinkering and inventing in his Joplin, Mo., workshop. Among his inventions is a furnace that heats the workshop using vegetable oil. Blotter recently told the Associated Press that one of his first memories is watching the pistons in a tractor engine go up and down. “Supposedly, my first real word was tractor,” he told the AP. “It was real frustrating for my parents — because every time they would get me a toy, I would take it apart.” Still, Blotter isn’t so focused on figuring out how things work that he can’t escape his workshop. After Hurricane Katrina, he moved to Louisiana for two months to cut down damaged trees and generally serve as a lumberjack.

S&T’s diversity efforts pay dividends Two Missouri S&T grads received honors last February at the 2008 Black Engineer of the Year Awards ceremony in Baltimore. Kenneth Patrick, EE’98, and Arnett Thomas, EE’98, were recognized as Modern Day Technology Leaders. “It was a very distinguished honor to be nationally recognized amongst such successful professionals, definitely a highlight to my career,” says Thomas, an associate with Booz Allen Hamilton. “What I found to be an additionally pleasant surprise to an outstanding weekend was that a fellow S&T graduate was also being recognized. I thought to myself what an accomplishment for the diversity efforts for the Minority Engineering Program.”

Close counts in horseshoes, hand grenades — and washers Brandon Howard, ChE’08, and Jason Struckmeyer, ME’08, are determined not to forget everything they learned in college -- especially when it comes to the game of washers. Howard and Struckmeyer were three-time intramural washers champions at Missouri S&T. They recently competed in the World Washers Championship, which was held in the St. Louis area. Washers is a game like horseshoes. Competitors try to pitch a doughnut-shaped metal washer into a wooden box. In the center of the box is a can. Points are earned by tossing a washer that settles in the box or, even better, inside the can. “Playing under pressure is when I play my best,” Struckmeyer told the South County Journal. “You’ll see a guy bank one off the can and he gets all down on himself, misses the next shot. You just can't do that to yourself.” Struckmeyer and Howard lost their first game during the World Washers Championship, but they rallied to win the next six games in a row. In the end, however, they fell short of winning the whole thing, not quite able to relive the washers dominance they enjoyed at S&T.

Campaign surpasses more than three-quarters of its goal The Advancing Excellence Campaign will strengthen Missouri S&Tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position as one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top technological research universities. The momentum to reach the 200 million mark continues as the campaign surpassed 160 million more than three quarters of its goal as of Oct. 31. The seven year campaign will end June 30, 2010. Missouri S&T thanks all donors who have supported this transformational initiative. Together we have accomplished great things and as we gear up for the final portion of the campaign, we must redouble our commitment to creating new scholarships for deserving students, attracting

outstanding educators and researchers, and enhancing our technological facilities. The campus community has rallied behind the goal of educating the most driven and disciplined students in the nation. More than 40 percent of Missouri S&T faculty, staff and retirees have invested in the programs and projects they value most. To learn more about the Advancing Excellence Campaign and how you can help prepare a new generation of leaders in engineering, science and technology, visit our website at campaign.mst.edu.

Our children’s future is at stake.” – Ioannis Miaoulis, director and president of the Museum of Science, Boston

Missouri S&T is one of only 16 technological research universities who educate engineers and scientists to be innovative and creative thinkers.

Leaving a legacy: The Hasselmann Society Karl Hasselmann, MinE’25, left a legacy of geological exploration for people around the globe. An internationally known geologist, Hasselmann’s system for underwater oil exploration led to the world’s first underwater oil field and the first offshore oil wells in the Gulf of Mexico. At Missouri S&T, he left a legacy of giving. To date, the Hasselmann’s contributions to Missouri S&T total more than $13 million, and thanks to estate planning, that amount is still growing. The Hasselmann Society recognizes those individuals who have made provisions for Missouri S&T in their wills or other estate plans. Through the generosity and forethought of these alumni and friends, programs and facilities are preserved and improved, student and faculty opportunities are developed, and Missouri S&T’s future is secured.

General Motors: from EcoCAR to EWB, a strong partnership General Motors Corp. shares a long and strong relationship with Missouri S&T. GM is a vital partner in education and research, a top employer of S&T graduates, a leading recruiter of current students, and one of the university’s most generous corporate supporters. Each year, the campus hosts GM Day, during which representatives from the corporation discuss career opportunities with students, show off new GM vehicles and products, and accept resumes from potential employees. GM annually supports scholarships, diversity initiatives, student design activities, faculty recognition, curriculum development and engineering advances. GM also supports Missouri S&T’s Engineers Without Borders chapter and the university’s Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering Education program (PACE). Through PACE, GM and other corporations help selected academic institutions around the world prepare the next generation of innovators. The program exposes students to the latest technologies in engineering, design and management.

GM is currently providing support for a new student design competition. Missouri S&T is one of 17 universities in North America that have been selected to participate in an eco-car challenge. The three-year challenge will test students’ abilities to re-engineer a Saturn VUE to achieve improved fuel economy and reduced greenhouse gas emissions, while retaining the vehicle’s performance and consumer appeal. The teams will incorporate lightweight materials into the vehicles, improve aerodynamics and utilize alternative fuels like ethanol and hydrogen. Each team will be tasked with finding a different solution to the larger problem. The S&T team learned in November that it has been selected to receive a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain. Only one other team in the competition, the University of Waterloo in Canada, will be working with a hydrogen solution. Other propulsion solutions involved in the challenge include: fully electric, range-extended electric, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid. In addition to production vehicles, GM is providing vehicle components, technical mentoring and operational support to the EcoCAR team.

Nucor Corp. provides radical insight, real power and S&T’s largest corporate gift By trusting its people, flattening its hierarchy and doing a good job of sharing corporate wealth, Nucor Corp. has become the largest steel company in the United States. According to Business Week magazine, the employees of the Charlotte, N.C., company don’t see themselves as “worker bees waiting for instructions from above.” Perhaps they don’t feel like worker bees because the corporation’s founding chair, F. Kenneth Iverson, had what Business Week calls a radical insight – that employees will make an extraordinary effort if you reward them richly, treat them with respect and give them real power. Nucor has more than 11,000 employees, including many from Missouri S&T. In the past five years, Nucor

has become the largest employer of S&T’s metallurgical engineering graduates and a major employer of all S&T graduates. At a number of locations in the United States, Nucor employees use the latest technology to manufacture a wide variety of carbon and steel products. Annual sales are more than $12 billion. Last year, Nucor donated $2 million to endow the F. Kenneth Iverson Chair in Missouri S&T’s materials science and engineering department – S&T’s largest corporate gift to date. Through the endowment, Nucor is also supporting education and research in steelmaking technologies at S&T with the intention of assisting in the development of future visionary leaders and technological experts in metals manufacturing.

Matching gifts: exponential giving Matching gift programs give individuals a chance to double or even quadruple their ability to make a difference. For instance, the Caterpillar Foundation is matching up to $100,000 in employee gifts to S&T. Caterpillar employs about 300 Missouri S&T graduates. For every dollar those grads contribute, Caterpillar adds a dollar. The contributions are used to support scholarships, diversity programs, the purchase of engineering equipment and the Student Design and Experiential Learning Center. Meanwhile, ExxonMobil has a three-for-one matching program with Missouri S&T. Graduates employed by ExxonMobil may contribute up

to $7,500 per year. Each donor can then direct the quadrupled contribution to any S&T project or program. Brinkmann Constructors is one of the most recent companies to start a matching gift program with S&T. “If you give a gift (to S&T), I’ll match it,” Robert Brinkmann, CE’71, tells his employees. Brinkmann is president of the company. Hundreds of employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their employees. To find out if your company has such a program, visit giving.mst.edu/waystogive.html.

The Boeing Co.: overcoming gravity Of all the contributions that The Boeing Co. makes to Missouri S&T, from empowering student design teams to supporting world-changing research projects, one of the most important investments might have to do with kids who have never even set foot on campus yet. Recently, Boeing donated $150,000 to help Missouri S&T improve efforts to provide pre-college education in engineering. Nationally, fewer than 5 percent of collegebound students plan to pursue degrees in engineering. Boeingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent gift supports Project Lead The Way, a program designed to implement a pre-engineering curriculum in high schools and middle schools. Project Lead The Way is a big part of the national effort to attract more young people to careers in technology and engineering. Begun as a school improvement initiative to address the shortage of engineers in the United States, the program has, during the past decade, spread to nearly 3,000 schools in all 50 states.

The curriculum is focused on team-based activities that allow students to work with their hands and see how mathematics can change the world. Through Project Lead The Way, Missouri S&T faculty members give pointers to the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teachers about the various ways to get students of all ages interested in engineeringrelated disciplines. Research shows that Project Lead The Way students are more likely than their peers to pursue and succeed in science, technology, engineering and mathematics majors in college. In 2008, the program will extend to more than 90 schools in Missouri and touch more than 7,000 young minds. Some of these young people will eventually attend Missouri S&T. And a lot of those ambitious students will have a good chance of winding up at Boeing, which is already the largest employer of S&T graduates. More than 1,600 grads are currently engaged in rewarding careers with Boeing.

Ways to give Cash (including five-year pledges of cash gifts) is the most popular and flexible type of charitable gift. Deductible to 50 percent of adjusted gross income (AGI), with a five-year carry-forward. The full-market value of securities having unrealized long-term capital gains when given philanthropically is deductible to 30 percent AGI, with a five-year carry-forward. Donors may avoid capital gains tax that would have been payable if they sold the stock and gave cash. Matching corporate gifts enable donors to double, triple or even quadruple their gift, depending on the matching gift policy. Matching gifts are “soft-credited” to donors for gift club recognition. Charitable gift annuity (minimum of $10,000) pays a guaranteed fixed income to a donor and/or a beneficiary for life with the residual value of the annuity given to Missouri S&T upon the death of the annuitant. (Income tax deduction, estate tax savings and capital gains tax savings.) Charitable remainder trust (minimum of $20,000) pays an income to the donor or beneficiary for a term of years or for life with the remaining principal given to Missouri S&T upon the death of the donor/beneficiary. (Income tax deduction, estate tax savings and capital gains tax savings.) Testamentary gifts (bequests through wills) give some donors the greatest opportunity to make a substantial gift to Missouri S&T. Charitable lead trust pays an income to Missouri S&T for a term of years; at term’s end, the remaining principal or asset is returned to the donor or designated beneficiary. (Income tax deduction, estate tax savings and capital gains tax savings.)

Meet the new president: Perrin Roller This fall, Perrin Roller, GeoE’80, became president of the Miner Alumni Association. Missouri S&T Magazine staff sat down with the vice president of well engineering for Devon Energy to get his perspective about the job. What do you feel is the most important role of the Miner Alumni Association? One of the most important roles of the Miner Alumni Association is to provide a huge, working network for the graduates of this university. This is important because it provides a communications link with the university to keep alumni association members aware of and involved in all of the current Perrin Roller happenings; it helps our members with career networking in their industries; it provides an avenue to provide financial, leadership and recruiting support; and helps keep you in touch with your friends and classmates. What is your role as president? I am more of a team leader and facilitator. Along with the other members of the Executive Committee and with the tremendous help and support of the alumni and development offices on campus, we control the rudder of the ship, so to speak, and continue to steer it in the proper direction. We have a long tradition of high-caliber individuals who have served as president and now continue to serve as past presidents, advising the board. We also have a great tradition of support from those that have volunteered their time to the board and as section leaders and officers. What are your plans for your term? Increase the networking with and among the members of the alumni association. Increase the participation

rate of association members. Build upon the existing support for the university both from individuals and from corporations. What challenges do you see facing the alumni association in the coming years? I see three main challenges. Obviously we are concerned with fundraising due to the economy and the financial markets. Recruiting is also important. With the declining number of students in Missouri, we must begin recruiting more students nationally. I also think the alumni association, along with the university, is in a unique position to help develop new ideas for energy and move them forward, considering the number of alumni in the energy business in some form or fashion. As a graduate of Missouri S&T, how do you feel the university prepared you for your success? One of the keys to success was the development of my critical thinking skills. S&T graduates have always had a reputation of being very good problem solvers. This is a big advantage in any industry. If you could give advice to a new graduate, what would you say? Broaden your horizons and think globally. Realize we are in a global economy and there are numerous opportunities for you as a Missouri S&T graduate around the world. Don’t be afraid to pursue your dreams.

On New Year’s Day, Roller and his family were the first to celebrate the university’s new name. They were hiking around Mount Crichton at Queenstown, New Zealand, near the International Date Line.

DONOR PROFILE

Philip and Diane Wade

The gift of giving back photo by Don C. Harris Photography

Philip Wade, PetE’71, believes in giving back, and what better way to do so than to provide opportunities to students and researchers at his alma mater? Wade, now the founder and chief executive officer of Bluegrass Energy in Tulsa, Okla., has been a long-time supporter of Missouri S&T. Last summer, Wade and his wife, Diane, gave more than $50,000 to the university. In August, the Wades made their largest commitment yet to Missouri S&T with a pledge of $250,000. “I have been very fortunate with any success I have had, and I owe a debt of gratitude to the people and institutions who have influenced me,” Wade says. “I have no doubt I can be thankful for the degree I got at Missouri S&T that enables me to do what I am doing. Missouri S&T provided the opportunity for me to learn and develop during my formative years.” Of the Wades’ donation, $100,000 will support Missouri S&T’s Energy Research and Development Center (ERDC). The ERDC’s mission is to increase the visibility of energy issues while enabling teams of scientists, engineers and policy makers to address and solve key energy issues. This mission is important to Wade, who believes in exploring alternative energy while continuing to use existing energy sources. “From our country’s point of view, we need to develop technology in the future to meet our energy needs for our economy’s and society’s well being,” Wade says. They also established the Philip and Diane Wade Endowed Scholarship for students with high financial needs. These are students whose income combined with that of their families is less than $40,000 annually. Thirty-two percent of Missouri S&T’s students fall into this category. Finally the couple funded the Philip and Diane Wade Geological Engineering Trips, which are in the process of being arranged. Wade says no matter where his dollars go, he’s happy to support Missouri S&T. “One of the things I’ve tried to do with my contributions is to help the university in ways it sees fit to enhance itself in providing a quality education to our students who will be our future leaders,” Wade says.
