FALL 2018
From the President
@ROSEHULMANPREZ
I
t is is my sincere hope that all of you received the news of the transition in leadership at Rose-Hulman upon Jim Conwell’s resignation in November. It is an honor for me to serve the students, faculty, staff and alumni as the 16th president of this remarkable institution. Many of you already know me, and I hope I have earned your trust over the years. I will strive to earn the confidence of all alumni as I work to ensure a very smooth transition and maintain our focus on several critical strategic goals for Rose-Hulman.
I’ll return to those goals in a moment, but I first want to fill you in on some of the activity on campus this fall. We welcomed a class of just over 500 freshmen with a newly created matriculation ceremony that introduced the students and their parents to our values and expectations, as well as our traditions. At the conclusion of the ceremony, bagpipers led the students out of the Sports and Recreation Center and over to Hatfield Hall, just as they will lead those students in the reverse direction for their Commencement ceremony in four years. The program, very well received, is now BY ROB COONS, officially the newest PRESIDENT Rose-Hulman tradition. coons@rose-hulman.edu
Homecoming Weekend was action-packed. In addition to the various class reunions, the traditional bonfire (spectacular as always) and football game (we won!), we also squeezed in a groundbreaking, a ribbon-cutting ceremony and a campaign launch. The groundbreaking was for the new academic building between Moench and Myers halls that we will be able to start work on next year, thanks to an anonymous lead gift of $15 million. (Details on page 8) While we continue to raise funds for that building, we are moving equipment into a new facility adjacent to the Branam Innovation Center that will expand student opportunities for hands-on lessons and projects. I’d like a take a little time to talk about the $250 million comprehensive campaign, Mission Driven—our cover story for this issue. (Cover story starts on page 4)

Some of the projects and developments you have read about in Echoes in recent years, such as the renovation and expansion of the student union and the creation of new endowed faculty chairs, are the result of fundraising achievements during the “quiet phase” of our campaign, during which we raised $165.5 million. The individuals and groups listed in the Honor Roll of Donors at the end of this issue have contributed to that success. They are an important part of the campaign, and we are very appreciative of their support. We now have $84.5 million to raise before the end of 2020 to accomplish several strategic objectives that are vital to our continued success: scholarship funding, modern facilities, and expanded student and faculty opportunities. We have been the top-ranked undergraduate engineering school in the nation for 20 years, yet we are facing external pressures in the form of increased competition and growing price sensitivity among families reluctant to assume heavy debt. A high-touch engineering education with outstanding faculty and facilities—the key to our differentiation and our success—is expensive to provide. We must be careful not to take our success for granted. To stay at the forefront, we will need to continue to attract top faculty and students. Rose-Hulman is very dependent upon tuition income, making it necessary for us to increase tuition each year to meet rising costs and provide the equipment and opportunities expected in a top university specializing in engineering, science and math. Our $215 million endowment is not large compared to the schools that are able to attract bright, diverse students through scholarships and aid that offset tuition increases and keep the cost of a college education affordable. That is why expanding our endowment for scholarships is the single largest goal of our campaign. Never has this been a more exciting time for our institution as our 150th anniversary approaches in 2024, yet it is a challenging period. That’s why, as we celebrate our many achievements, our new facilities and our new programs—and our 20th year as the No.1 undergraduate engineering school—we are putting a great deal of time and developing new resources to position Rose-Hulman for another successful 150 years.

READER FEEDBACK
Full Speed Ahead After years of getting speeding tickets on public roads, Singalex (Alex) B. Song (BSME, 2000/MSEM, 2010) decided to put pedal to the metal in a controlled, legal setting. In September, he took his 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera out to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, in a scientific attempt to find its top speed. As only an engineer could do, Song experimented with several variables, including running with the windows open versus closed, air conditioning running versus off and driving on the paved versus natural salt surfaces. After learning the impact of each variable, he determined the top speed to be 166 mph through an average of three runs. The fastest configuration “was on the paved salt surface, with the windows closed, the A/C off and Guns N’ Roses playing on the stereo,” he says. Song vows to return in the future with some aerodynamic and horsepower modifications to try to attain 175 mph. He says he will “remove the windshield wipers and mirrors, and bring several rolls of duct tape” to make the car even more aerodynamic. At Rose-Hulman, Song was a member of the Solar Phantom solar car race team (which traveled at much slower speeds) and The Thorn newspaper staff. He lives in Indianapolis and works as an applications engineer at Aearo Technologies, a subsidiary of 3M Corp.

Other Memorable Professors As a civil engineering graduate, I miss my good friend Cecil Lobo. He was an outstanding professor and a very dear friend of mine. Also, I can still see the smiling faces of Herman Moench, Denny Sapp and Oran Knudsen. They were also outstanding professors and also close friends. I’m not sure many know this or not, but Oran worked on the famous Manhattan Project. He and I hung out together on an alumni trip to Switzerland many years ago. He was a wonderful fellow. Also, after graduation, I worked for Denny Sapp in designing the equipment that built smoke stacks and cooling towers.
Did you know that he had an organ in his house? The speakers were built into the attic. When the Allen Organ Company introduced the Schmidt first computer-based organ, using Fourier Series to model the best pipes in the world, not only did Professor Schmidt arrange to have it demonstrated at a school convocation, but he replaced his original organ with the new state-of-the-art one. Professor Schmidt was also an amazing cook, and I have a fond memory of the time he invited the Glee Club to his home for an excellent meal. I wish I knew what wine he served. It was a revelation in the era of Boone’s Farm Wine.
My how the years have slipped away. Mark E. Killion (CE, 1971) Lobo
Mistaken Identity
I appreciated the little tribute to Al Schmidt in the Spring 2017 Echoes issue. Yes, I’m a little behind. I thought I would mention that the Rose Chorus was called the Glee Club back in the days that I was in it, and Professor Schmidt was our accompanist then as well.
In 2003, I met Professor Schmidt while attended Homecoming for my 30th class reunion. He said he remembered me, and I hope that’s true. It would have been enough that he was my first calculus professor, but he was also the constant presence and guide for the Glee Club through all four of my years at Rose. I deeply appreciate him.

‘MISSION DRIVEN’ CAMPAIGN PROPELLING INSTITUTE INTO FUTURE
The renovated and expanded student union provides a place to relax, rejuvenate, dine and socialize, with a new food service experience—all made possible by a $9 million lead gift from Linda and Mike Mussallem. He is a 1974 chemical engineering alumnus.
ROSE-HULMAN’S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH THE WORLD’S BEST UNDERGRADUATE SCIENCE, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS EDUCATION IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION AND SUPPORT.

Cover Story
ON A MISSION More than $165.5 million of that total was raised during a campaign quiet phase, and the campus is already benefitting from gifts from alumni, friends, corporations and foundations. Campaign co-chairs are Jeff A. Harrison, a 1989 electrical engineering alumnus who is president and CEO of Citizens Energy Group in Indianapolis, and Thomas Dinkel, a 1972 mechanical engineering graduate who is president of Terre Haute-based Sycamore Engineering.
Rose-Hulman professors have long been recognized for their teaching and scholarly expertise, along with helping their students excel in and out of the classroom.
Straightforward as Rose-Hulman’s mission is, fulfilling the promise to provide the world’s best education is a tall order that involves attracting and retaining leading-edge faculty, recruiting diverse and inquisitive students, staying ahead of technological change, continually modernizing facilities and equipment, and expanding the hands-on experiences for students that differentiate Rose-Hulman from competitors and give our graduates an edge in the job market and graduate school applications. Those “behind the scenes” activities to keep Rose-Hulman at the forefront of engineering education provide the impetus for a $250 million comprehensive “Mission Driven” Campaign for Rose-Hulman announced during this year’s Homecoming Weekend. Fundraising goals through 2020 will support the following areas:
“We’re fortunate to have people who share and support the clear principles that have allowed us to emerge as a global leader in STEM education,” says President Rob Coons. “It’s not an overstatement to say that Rose-Hulman prepares students to change the world. For 144 years, we’ve been coming together to inspire, innovate, dream, and impact. And now, we have a chance to go further.” The campaign began quietly after an extensive academic strategic planning process that involved institute stakeholders whose input provided the basis for a five-year Strategic Plan from 2013 through 2018. (Some of the achievements resulting from the plan are detailed on page 10.) Several objectives, including increasing diversity on campus, remain as focus areas of the institute over the next few years.

As the largest portion of the campaign goal, increasing the endowment for student scholarships and financial aid will allow Rose-Hulman to contend for top talent against other top STEM colleges and universities. These academically strong students will come from a

wider range of socioeconomic and ethnic groups, noted Coons, who added, “we need to strengthen our commitment to students in areas of affordability and accessibility.” Other campaign initiatives will empower faculty to lead on campus and in their career fields as they leverage hands-on, experiential learning and expand opportunities for students to engage in the discovery process from their first days on campus. New spaces are being developed to encourage collaboration and immersive learning. A new three-story, 60,000-square-foot academic building will open in 2021. (Details on page 8), complementing a new, 13,800-square-foot facility adjacent to the Branam Innovation Center (BIC) that will be ready for occupancy this winter quarter for engineering design and other collaborative projects. Both structures feature flexible and easily adaptable classrooms, laboratories, design studios and workspaces for academic programs and projects, as well as for competition teams. The academic building will replace existing chemistry classrooms with state-of-the-art chemistry learning laboratories.

See inside front cover for more details.
The new structures will connect curricular and co-curricular activities for the institute, relocate equipment, and ease the pressure on the busy BIC for competition teams and student design projects, says Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Anne Houtman, who notes that during the school year, “the BIC” operates at capacity with students working on projects. “Our classrooms, labs and project spaces have served as incubators of learning and discovery, and if we want to continue leading the way, we must develop new spaces and transform existing environments,” says Houtman. Coons acknowledges that Rose-Hulman has a rich history as the first private engineering college west of the Allegheny Mountains and, in 1889, as the first U.S. college or university to confer a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering. For two decades the institute has been ranked No. 1 among the nation’s best specialized colleges for undergraduate engineering, through a U.S. News & World Report College Guide survey of senior-level engineering faculty and deans, and has earned high marks from Forbes, the Brookings Institution, Market Watch and Princeton Review for its academic reputation, faculty teaching, job placement and alumni career achievements.

ON A MISSION
DRIVEN TO EXCEL
MISSION DRIVEN CAMPAIGN FOR ROSE-HULMAN GOALS: $100 MILLION FOR STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS AND FINANCIAL AID Rose-Hulman’s $210 million endowment, while healthy, doesn’t allow the institute to meet the 20 to 40 percent of a family’s unmet total demonstrated financial need in order to attend Rose-Hulman without incurring any long-range college debt. Meeting 80 to 100 percent of prospective students’ financial need will allow the institute to be a strong contender for acquiring top talent against other elite science and engineering schools and better position Rose-Hulman to attract the strongest students from a wider range of socioeconomic and ethnic groups.
$85 MILLION SUPPORTING THE FUND FOR ROSE-HULMAN Faculty development, student scholarships, new and improved facilities, and other programs and initiatives support the building blocks for students to research, experiment, create and compete—setting them on a course for even greater achievement as alumni.
$50 MILLION FOR NETWORKING AND LEARNING New and updated classrooms, laboratories and project spaces will serve as incubators of learning and discovery. Students use these spaces to experiment with new approaches that will carry over into their professional lives.
$15 MILLION FOR FACULTY SUPPORT AND OTHER INITIATIVES Faculty teach students how to master and apply concepts of the discovery process in relevant ways, from the beginning of the undergraduate experience. This is one of Rose-Hulman’s greatest strengths. Gifts in this area will continue to give faculty and students the tools they need to excel— in the classroom and beyond.

Cover Story
ON A MISSION
BUILDING BLOCKS NEW ACADEMIC BUILDING TO OPEN DOORS A groundbreaking ceremony during Homecoming Weekend heralded the promise of a new academic building that will provide collaboration workspaces, design studios, flexible classrooms, chemistry laboratories and faculty innovation spaces. Supported through a $15 million lead gift from an anonymous donor, the $29 million academic building will connect Moench and Myers Halls on the east side of campus. It is scheduled to be available for the 2021-22 school year. The building has been designed to support active student engagement through flexible and easily adaptable spaces for student projects and design studios, and breakout space for students and teams to collaborate on projects. A central atrium and lots of interior and exterior glass will showcase the work taking place within, making it a “window into Rose” that showcases curricular innovation, laboratory activities and teamwork among students, faculty and staff.
Anne Houtman, provost and vice president for academic affairs, points out that flexible learning classrooms and innovation spaces will more easily integrate instruction with exploration. New state-of-the-art chemistry laboratories, replacing aging facilities currently in use, will provide separate spaces for instruction and hands-on learning of general, organic, analytical and physical chemistry, and undergraduate chemistry and biochemistry research with faculty. The building also will give students access to a prototyping laboratory, laser-cutting devices, machine tools and a woodworking shop.
“The design of this new academic building reflects our focus on active engagement in learning within a collaborative, mentoring environment,” said past president Jim Conwell at the groundbreaking ceremony. Administrators, trustees, alumni, faculty and community leaders broke ground on the building in a special ceremony during Homecoming Weekend.
The $29 million academic building will connect Moench Hall and Myers Hall, with a center concourse area (near the current Rotz Laboratory site), on the east side of campus.

ON A MISSION
FACULTY SUPPORT
UNIQUE GIFT SUPPORTS TEACHING EXCELLENCE CHAIR Political science professor Terrence Casey has been named the inaugural Alfred R. Schmidt Chair for Excellence in Teaching, an honor recognizing the best and brightest of the institute’s faculty who are committed to excellence and innovation in their field and in educational pursuits. G. Felda Hardymon, a 1969 mathematics alumnus, endowed the new faculty chair through proceeds from the auction of his customized McLaren P1 hypercar in the spring of 2017, which sold for more than $2 million. His hope in auctioning the car was to bring international and national attention to Rose-Hulman while honoring the late, inspirational math professor who taught at Rose for 46 years after graduating from the institute in 1949 with a degree in mechanical engineering. Provost Anne Houtman notes that faculty recipients of endowed chairs influence the institute’s culture and strategic direction while leading valuable conversations in their career fields. “We have always invested in teaching, and the Alfred Schmidt endowed chair reinforces that commitment while enabling us to continue attracting and retaining world-class faculty,” says Houtman, who also serves as vice president for academic affairs. Through a three-year appointment, the new faculty chair will support creation of transformative learning experiences in the classroom at Rose-Hulman and provide opportunities for national engagement with other exceptional scholars.
Casey
Casey, a member of the faculty since 2000, will concentrate on courses involving the institute’s first-year international curriculum, including providing faculty-led study abroad courses students can experience as soon as they are accepted into the college. These courses will begin in the summer of 2021. “I regularly remind our students that engineers design for the real world, not the classroom or the lab. To do that effectively you need to fully understand the people inhabiting that world, with all of their foibles and complexities,” says Casey. “I am delighted that I have the opportunity to work to expand the number of faculty-led study abroad courses, providing our students with many more opportunities to integrate international experiences into their engineering education.” Casey teaches political science, and his research interests primarily focus on British politics and comparative political economy. He served as chair of Rose-Hulman’s Department of Humanities and Social Sciences from 2009-17, and received the Board of Trustees’ Outstanding Scholar Award in 2012.
OTHER ENDOWED FACULTY CHAIRS INCLUDE: (current holders) Lawrence J. Giacoletto (EE, 1938) Endowed Chair in Electrical & Computer Engineering (Robert Throne) Samuel F. Hulbert (HD, 1997) Endowed Chair in Biomedical Engineering (Currently Open)
Roland E. Hutchins Endowed Chair in Civil Engineering (John Aidoo) Chair for Innovation in Science, Engineering and Mathematics Education (Azad Siahmakoun)

SIGN OF THE TIMES
Historic Clabber Girl Baking Powder Billboard Getting a Facelift
A large billboard that for more than 80 years has welcomed visitors to Terre Haute, the home of Clabber Girl Corporation, is being restored by Rose-Hulman and the company. The 44-foot-long billboard along U.S. 40—the historic Old National Road—is believed to be the oldest billboard in existence in Indiana and, with its large clock, one of the first electric billboards in the country. Rose-Hulman took over ownership of the sign in the fall of 2017 as part of the institute’s purchase of more than 1,100 acres of property from the Hulman family, creators of Clabber Girl Baking Powder. The billboard stands on the eastern edge of Terre Haute, at the southwest corner of U.S. 40 and Hunt Road. “I join many people in passing by that billboard every day and am glad to see that we’re giving this iconic local landmark a much-needed facelift,” says Steve Brady, Rose-Hulman’s vice president for institutional advancement. He worked with Clabber Girl Corporation officials on the project. The restoration project began late this fall with trimming trees whose overgrowth infringed upon edges of the billboard. Workers also will improve the sign’s wooden frame, including the
working clock at the top of the sign, and give the Clabber Girl graphics a complete facelift. Wabash Valley professional artist Becky Hochhalter is repainting the sign with the same colors and images—the baking powder logo, container and the words “Five Minutes to Terre Haute… The Home of Clabber Girl Baking Powder.” “I’m looking forward to restoring this iconic sign to its past glory so that it can greet visitors to Terre Haute, my hometown, for many years into the future,” says Hochhalter, a lifelong artist whose artworks have graced the cover of Echoes, and a variety of advertising and computer graphics. She works in traditional oil and acrylic painting, illustrations, drawings and sculptures, and her artwork has been displayed in Chicago and New York City. She recently finished a 60-foot mural at the Crossroads Plaza and a bronze sculpture, both in Terre Haute. With headquarters in downtown Terre Haute, Clabber Girl is a private holding company that has produced baking powder since 1899. Then-owner Anton “Tony” Hulman Jr. developed a national sales campaign, including roadside billboards, during the 1930s in hopes of making the baking powder brand a household name.

IN BRIEF
Coons Named President Following Conwell Resignation Robert A. Coons is Rose-Hulman’s 16th president following his unanimous selection Nov. 15 by the Board of Trustees. He had been serving as acting president since the resignation of Jim Conwell on Nov. 7. Coons has nearly 30 years of service to the institute, most recently as senior vice president and chief administrative officer for the last six years. He also served as interim president during the 2012-13 school year; was chief administrative officer from 2005 to 2012; and formerly served as vice president for business and finance, and controller. “Rob is well prepared for this key leadership role, and the Board of Trustees has full confidence that he is the right person to keep Rose-Hulman moving forward in meeting its future challenges,” says Board Chair Niles Noblitt. “Rob has earned the respect of trustees, faculty, staff and alumni, many of whom have spoken in favor of this appointment.”
Coons, who joined Rose-Hulman in 1989, received the President’s Outstanding Service Award in 2010 and was named an honorary Rose-Hulman alumnus by the Alumni Association in 2013.
Noblitt noted that Coons played a key role in organizing the framework for the formulation of the goals and

A partnership between the Department of Chemical Engineering and Endress+Hauser is providing leading-edge, industry-standard equipment through the new Fluid Flow and Process Measurements Experimental Unit in the High Bay Laboratory. The unit incorporates 25 modern process instruments to measure flow rate, level, pressure and temperature across a piping network—key elements in every industrial chemical process. It will be used by students in the senior-year laboratory sequence, an advanced process control course, and special projects and topics courses. Faculty also will use the equipment in research projects with undergraduate- and graduate-level students. The total investment by Endress+Hauser, Rose-Hulman and 1952 chemical engineering alumnus Mac Fehsenfeld, retired chief executive officer of the Crystal Flash Petroleum Corporation, is approximately $300,000.

Civil Engineering Lab on New Campus Grounds The vast property that the institute purchased in 2017 across the highway from the main campus has its first academic tenant: a modular learning laboratory for civil engineering.
Dougherty Named Senior Director for Ventures Alumnus and longtime engineering director at Rose-Hulman Ventures, Brian C. Dougherty has been promoted to senior director of Ventures, a product design, rapid prototyping and development firm located on the institute’s south campus. He succeeds Elizabeth Hagerman (CHE, 2000), who resigned to accept an economic development position in Indianapolis. (See page 28) Dougherty (BSEE, 1993; MSEM, 1999) steps into this position after 18 years working with clients, project managers and student interns at Ventures. He is listed on several patents.
The facility, part of a three-year project sponsored by the National Science Foundation, gives civil engineering students the ability to perform structural engineering experiments at or near full scale. It has a modular strongwall testing system to which projects can be attached and tested. The system is strong enough to support simulated earthquake-strength-level loads. Associate professor Matt Lovell (CE, 2006) and assistant professor Kyle Kershaw are leading the institute’s partnership with professors at Saint Louis University. The lab also will be valuable for courses in structural analysis and design of steel and concrete structures taught by professors Jim Hanson and John Aidoo.

DRIVING THE FUTURE
AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
TURNING THE CORNER ON SAFETY, CONVENIENCE General Motors and Honda, Google parent Autonomous cars, connected eyeglasses and robotic maids may seem like imaginative ideas taken from old episodes of “The Jetsons” or “Inspector Gadget.” But creative aspects of those high-tech gadgets are being designed on computer screens by alumnus Dane Bennington and other highly motivated engineers, computer programmers and technologists who are pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence. The technology is changing every day. In fact, this story was updated on multiple occasions in the month before publication. Self-driving cars are racking up miles throughout the country on test tracks and city streets—not only testing out autonomous vehicle technology, but also proving that it can become a viable business. The stakes are high. Ford Motor Company has invested $1 billion over five years with Argo AI in hopes of launching its first production autonomous vehicles in 2021. Germany’s Volkswagen may be adding another $1 billion into the company’s efforts, according to published reports. Other players include Cruise Automation, backed by

Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo team and several other China-supported companies.
“It’s just so rare in life when you can completely change the landscape of transportation,” says Argo AI chief executive officer Bryan Salesky. “We’re going to make this happen.” Ford felt comfortable enough with Argo AI’s technology that it hosted journalists and industry analysts late this fall in Miami for product demonstrations. Bennington is among the company’s nearly 400 employees who are tackling the challenge. “These are exciting times to be working on autonomous cars,” says Bennington, a senior engineer for special projects, during a telephone interview from the startup’s new three-story Pittsburgh headquarters.

The profit potential for autonomous vehicles could radically change the automotive industry. Ford officials predict the profit margin could be up to double that of conventional cars currently on the market. “The algorithms, sensors and computing power required to take a lot of the ideas forwarded decades ago have arrived in such a way that it’s now possible to run them in real time on mobile platforms. In short, we stand at the edge of an era in which theoretical robotics can become practical.” A white crown with a series of cameras, radars and lasers provide the Ford-Argo Fusion autonomous vehicle prototype with a wealth of data that helps the car respond to situations around them, including other vehicles, pedestrians, traffic signals, pets and wandering items. Simultaneous localization and advanced mapping techniques are a key component to the process, and tools developed by Argo AI help the car understand its location to a high degree of accuracy—as well as where it can go, where it can’t go and how fast it can go, Bennington explains. One of the jobs of the company’s mapping and labeling team is plotting the exact location of traffic signals. With this information, the

Vehicle Challenge Lets Students Explore Promising Career Path Their first car won’t be autonomous, but today’s high school students are learning the technology behind the vehicles they probably will be using in the future through participation in the Rose-Hulman Autonomous Vehicle Challenge. A record 47 teams of students from 16 high schools in Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee and Texas came to campus last spring to race miniature autonomous vehicles that use a microcontroller and sensors to navigate oval- and clover-figure race tracks. The final challenge was a track with twisting turns and straightaway sections that was unknown to the team before the competition. “This places you in the environment of thinking like an engineer and working together to solve a complex problem,” says Siaam Sarker, a student from Richardson (Texas) High School’s championship team. Technology from the development of autonomous vehicles is being examined by Bennington (above) and other engineers for applications in other industries to change the future.

Then came a unique opportunity with Argo AI. “Joining Argo (in 2017) was a confluence of factors that happened at the right time in my career,” he says. “Argo promised to be an environment in which I could work with and learn from engineers with decades of automotive experience, while working for a company whose attitude towards autonomous vehicles matched my own—namely that Level-4 Autonomy is a hard but not unsolvable problem. Any company that wants to get serious about autonomous cars needs partners in the auto manufacturing space, and the knowledge that safety and reliability come first above all.” He adds, “As folks continue to come up with new and better approaches to complex problems, the more powerful computing and more discerning sensors are needed. We have approaches that we are fairly certain will get us to an autonomous car, but there are lots of places where major changes in approach may yield enormous benefits. It’s a time to throw ideas at the wall and see what sticks, while also having a good system by which to benchmark.” n

“Also, it put you around some really cool people.” “Students like getting to work on something that real engineers are doing today and that maybe someday they could follow and make a career out of,” states Marc Herniter, professor of electrical and computer engineering who developed the autonomous vehicle challenge. “People are starting to realize that electric vehicles are becoming today’s technology, and autonomous isn’t too far away from becoming a reality.” Rose-Hulman has hosted the competition for the past three years and hopes to expand the popular educational event in the future with additional sponsorship and funding.
The students used tools developed by computing software developer MathWorks and the international semiconductor firm NXP to implement engineering processes used by Ford Motor Company to design advanced technology vehicles. All three companies have co-sponsored the event since its beginning.

WINE TASTING
STORY BY PAUL SHEPHERD PHOTOS BY BRYAN CANTWELL
W
inemaking in Indiana is serious business, with the number of Hoosier wineries tripling over the past decade to more than 100. As technologies and techniques have moved from the West Coast to the Midwest, so too has the refinement of the winemaking process. “We’re starting to see a lot of these really sophisticated wines being produced,” says Christian Huber, one of the primary winemakers for Huber’s Orchard, Winery and Vineyards. While the winery used to primarily produce hybrids and labruscas—like concord, Niagara, Catawba and Marechal Foch—they’re now growing cabernet sauvignon, pinot gris, petit Verdot and chardonnay. Five Huber family members work for the seventhgeneration, 650-acre farm nestled on Huber Road, outside of the small southern Indiana community
of Borden. Among them is Marcie (Huber) Hawk, a 2010 chemical engineering alumna. “A lot of people around here were shocked that I came back to the family business, because I did go away to engineering school. I was a little shocked myself,” says Hawk, who married her college sweetheart, Daniel (EE, 2010), an engineer in Louisville. The couple has two young sons. “After being in engineering, I realized the opportunities I had to help our family business.” To be clear, though, this is no mom-and-pop shop. Huber’s averages 150 employees and hires another 100 during its peak times of the year.

with hundreds of customers. Depending on the season, visitors pluck up everything from pumpkins to strawberries to Christmas trees. Big draws are the bourbon made with heirloom non-GMO corn, brandy created from apples and grapes, and the roughly 50 different types of wine— most of which are made from 20 varietals of grapes and other fruits grown on the farm. In 2017, the company produced more than 600,000 bottles of wine and 40,000 bottles of distilled spirits. Sustainability and efficiency are key reasons why Huber’s thrives. Workers leverage the latest technologies to minimize fungicide spraying and incorporate Integrated Pest Management practices—using swallow birds for example—as a more natural way to control pests. And, they use everything they grow in a variety of ways, down to the literal core of each harvested fruit.
The vineyards and orchards on the seventh-generation, 650-acre farm— settled by Huber ancestors in 1843—regularly draws hundreds of daily visitors throughout the year.

“We grow the strawberries, sell them in our market, and whatever’s left over we freeze and turn it into wine,” Hawk says. “Even after doing that for so many years, we learned that we could take the sediment to make distilled spirits. We try to squeeze every ounce of value out of every product we grow here on the farm.”
A Family Bond “Sweet Marcella” holds a special place in Marcie (Huber) Hawk’s heart.
Huber’s wines and distilled spirits have piled up accolades, earning more than 900 gold, silver and bronze awards in nationwide competitions.
Keys to Good Wine From the viticulturist to the home winemaker using a boxed kit, the keys to making good wines haven’t changed: consistency, balance and lots of patience. Huber relates that different types of yeast contribute to different structures and flavors. Maintaining a consistent temperature during fermentation (when sugars turn into alcohol) and clarification is imperative; though the types of fermentation processes—cool versus hot, oak versus stainless steel, and if there is secondary or malolactic fermentation (think buttery chardonnay)—all impact the finished product.

WINE TASTING
It’s not because it’s the top-selling wine for Huber’s Orchard, Winery and Vineyards, Indiana’s largest estate-grown vineyard—though that doesn’t hurt its case. Nor is it because it’s her favorite wine. (She prefers the chilled Stella Rosé or the full-bodied Heritage dry red blend over the sweet concord varietal.) It happens to be the namesake of Hawk’s greatgrandmother Marcella Huber that was passed down to the 2010 chemical engineering alumna.
The total acidity mixed with the strength of acidity, or pH, affects the balance of the wine. Reds and whites have different stability thresholds. For example, a 3.7 pH for a cabernet sauvignon may lead to a less stable wine rather than a 3.4 or 3.5 pH factor. Patience comes into play when allowing a wine to age. For example, a red may be fruit-forward in its early shelf life, then later produce more earthy characteristics before finally gaining the terroir—flavor profiles of the climate and soil where the grapes were grown—and softer tannins. Winemaking, Huber notes, is like “getting a huge chemistry degree. It’s all about being patient.” n
Huber’s Heritage wine (left) won Best in Show, Best in Indiana Grown and Gold awards at the 2018 and 2017 Indiana Wine Fair. Starlight Distillery (below) is the winery’s offshoot that produces spirits such as brandy and whiskey.
Marcie (Huber) Hawk That strong familial bond is part of the reason Hawk returned to the family business after spending time working as an engineer. “I grew up on the farm,” Hawk says. “My parents’ house is still on the farm.” Hawk has spent the past six years working in a variety of roles at Huber’s. Currently, she does everything from managing finances, to hiring employees, to completing all the necessary regulatory compliance records for the winery and on-site distillery. “I help wherever is needed, and that’s typical in a small family business,” she says. “The different career paths you can take with an engineering degree are immense.”

t was an eye-opening experience, spending five years studying in a male-dominated field in a foreign country. But I loved studying in Germany, where they valued hands-on education through internships and personal experiences with a strong focus on production technology and mechanical engineering. I never thought that being a woman in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) was limiting or unique; I thought it was normal. Sure, there were more men than women in my field at university, but I always felt encouraged by my professors. From early on, it was clear to me that I enjoyed studying these subjects and wanted to pursue engineering as a career.

My daughters went back to school this month. Sophie, a junior in high school, spent three weeks this summer at Operation Catapult, a STEM camp at Rose-Hulman, my graduate school alma mater. She loves math and physics (just like me!) and is considering studying engineering in college. Like many girls her age, she isn’t completely sure that’s what she wants to study. My husband (Daniel, a 1994 Rose-Hulman mechanical engineering alumnus) and I hoped the camp would help give her some clarity. When we drove to Terre Haute to pick her up, she was so excited to show me the hovercraft her team built during the session—and to pitch us on how they made it. On the drive home, Sophie told me that while she just loved the campus and faculty at Rose-Hulman, she thought it was strange that there were three boys to every one girl at the camp. I explained to
her that this ratio is very common in engineering, but something that needs to change. Today, women are dramatically underrepresented in STEM fields. Although women make up 55 percent of all college and graduate students and half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce, women only represent 29 percent of the science and engineering workforce. This disconnect often tracks back to middle school. At that point, many girls begin to lose interest in STEM. I know how important it is to have women in engineering leadership roles—it’s evident with the newest mammography system GE Healthcare launched last year, Senographe Pristina. It was designed by a team of women for women—with their personal insights as patients in mind. It was designed to help encourage adherence for patients to their regular mammography screenings. It was designed to fight breast cancer by helping make mammograms more comfortable for women everywhere.
Since Sophie returned home from camp, she has felt more comfortable and confident exploring engineering. We need more opportunities like these for girls because we need more women in STEM. That’s why I’m excited about the GE Girls program. In 2011, GE partnered with Massachusetts Institute of Technology to develop a one-week summer camp program to help encourage girls to stay engaged in STEM and to explore STEM careers. That single program has given girls more than 76,000 hours of hands-on STEM learning since 2011.

I especially want to thank our more than 730 GE Girls volunteers who put in thousands of hours this summer to develop and deliver 95 camps. You made an incredible difference in these girls’ lives and have positively shaped their futures.

Along the way he got a wonderful tan, conquered mountainous terrain and ever-changing weather conditions, met many friendly people, and tasted varieties of locally brewed ale at more than 100 pubs, taverns and bars off the beaten path. And, part of Weldon’s journey was a visit to Rose-Hulman, his former Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity house and Terre Haute’s Sonka Irish Pub (see related story on pages 32-33). “This trip was about challenging myself, and pushing myself to my limits, facing adversity and growing from it,” he says. “I’m a different person than when I attended Rose-Hulman. I wanted to become a better person, to grow as a human being, and to spread some cheer and goodwill towards my fellow man.” Along this personal journey, Weldon highlighted the Wounded Warrior Project, a national charity that helps meet the needs of military soldiers, their families and caregivers. He also set up a GoFundMe account to support his adventure and WWP.

Pedaling for a Difference Alumni couple Kaleb and Marie (Stettler) Kleine pedaled across the country this summer to raise public awareness and nearly $10,000 for multiple sclerosis treatment and research in support of the Bike the U.S. for MS organization. The 3,785-mile journey started in June at Yorktown, Va., (near Virginia Tech, where both are graduate students) and ended at San Francisco in late July. The ride was a personal tribute to Marie’s father, who died in 2016 from a debilitating set of medical conditions. “This was something that had been on our minds and a line item on our grad student budgets for a few years now,” says Marie (ME/IS, 2014), who is working toward a PhD in science and technology studies focused on humanitarian engineering. Kaleb (EE, 2014) is studying for a doctorate in electrical engineering with a concentration in wireless communication systems.

STORY BY DALE LONG
Ironman Athlete Does swimming 1.2 miles, cycling 56 miles and running 13.1 miles—in succession—sound like a fun way to spend a morning? That’s extremely exhilarating to Benjamin H. Stone, who completed the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in early September in the Nelson Mandela Bay region of South Africa. This came nearly a year after he ran in his first triathlon. Stone is now setting his sights on winning an age group title at the USA Olympic Nationals next summer. That event will include a 1.5-kilometer swim (just under a mile), 40-kilometer bike ride (nearly 25 miles) and 10-kilometer run (slightly over 6 miles). “There’s something special about pushing yourself as hard as you can for as long as you can. You get
all the joy in competing against yourself and the competitors around you,” says Stone (BE, 2018), whose 4:46:56 time placed 838th among more than 3,700 athletes. The swimming portions of the Ironman events are the easiest portion of the challenge for the former recordsetting Rose-Hulman swim team member. His weekly training regimen includes two or three distance swims indoors and approximately 20 miles of running and cycling six to seven hours. He has had to overcome a variety of injuries and medical surgeries.

TRIUMPHS
“I haven’t competed in an Ironman event when fully healthy. That makes me hopeful to do well next summer—keeping my fingers crossed that no other injuries creep up along the way,” says Stone.
A Marathon Man
In for the Long Run
Kenny M. McCleary is now one of the small fraction of runners who have completed a marathon race in every U.S. state and Canadian province. His first marathon came in 2001 at age 40; a race in Alaska in 2013 made him a member of the exclusive 50 State Club, and he’s planning to finish his 100th 26.2-mile event early this December in Wildwood, Mo.
Eric T. Liobis is another late-blooming runner who has developed an appreciation for running over really LONG distances. He has completed three 100-mile ultramarathon events this year and is planning to run a 24-hour event in Tennessee next April.
McCleary (CHE, 1983) has completed the prestigious Boston Marathon three times, run in as many as 10 marathons during one year and posted an all-time fastest time of 3 hours, 14 minutes at the St. Jude Marathon (Memphis, Tenn.) in 2007.
“I started running to get in shape (losing nearly 50 pounds) and relieving the stress of graduate school (BSCE/MA, 2012; MSCE, 2015). I found that it was a great way to escape, be by myself and meditate,” says Liobis, the assistant director of residence life at his alma mater. “I train for distance, not speed. My only goal is getting to the starting line, being focused when things get tough along the race and then being there at the finish.”
All of this for a former football player who started running in the spring of 1996 to improve his personal health. “Just like graduating from Rose, running a marathon is a hard thing to accomplish,” he says. “There’s no way to fake your way through a marathon. It is an honest test of yourself. You have to put in the training and make the commitment to finish.”

An isosceles triangle with base B and height H is shown. A tower is inscribed in the triangle with an infinite sequence of squares (some are shown). Each square has its top two vertices on the sides of the triangle. The base of the bottom square is on the base of the triangle and the bases of the remaining squares are on the top sides of the previous square. The top vertices of the squares lie on the two equal sides of the triangle. What is the sum of the areas of this infinite sequence of squares? This can be solved with or without using a geometric series. There’s extra credit for both.

The rain gauge consists of two right circular cones with a common vertical axis. The smaller is above and “dips” into the larger as shown. A vertical rain has been falling at a constant rate with the cones initially empty. Find the rainfall rate (in inches/hour) if h = 3.5 inches after 2 hours. Super Bonus: Same initially empty rain gauge and vertical rain at a rate of 7/10 inch/hour. Find h after two hours of rain. If V is the volume of water in the gauge and 3 is 1- (4 - h) = h – 3. Thus

If R is the constant vertical rainfall rate in inches/hour and T is the time that the rain falls, then the total volume of water entering the gauge is VE = π (2)2RT. If h = 3.5 and T = 2, then equating V and VE gives R = (35–27h + 9h2) / 96 = .529inches/hour. If R = .7 and T = 2, then equating V and VE and solving the resulting quadratic gives h = 3.91 in.

Vincent (Vince) O. Valenzuela (ME, 1997) realized his childhood dream of being a “Jeopardy!” contestant and even had two appearances on the syndicated television game show —a unique feat given that Valenzuela didn’t win in his first try, something contestants typically must do in order to return. Valenzuela came on strong in the final minutes of his July 13, 2018 debut appearance, thanks to correctly answering a timely Daily Double, and had the lead heading into the Final Jeopardy round. The clue as read by host Alex Trebek was, “This slang term for an environmentalist is literally true of groups that used passive resistance vs. deforestation, as in India in 1973.” However, the written clue posted for contestants read “His slang term for an environmentalist...” Valenzuela originally wrote down the correct answer of “Tree Hugger,” but crossed it out at the last second and wrote down “Carl Sagan” instead, which ended up being incorrect. If “Carl Sagan” had been correct, Valenzuela had bet enough money to become the show’s new champion. However, because it was initially deemed incorrect, he ended up finishing third. “It sounded like they’re looking for a person’s name and so I just grabbed a person who was big in the environment and who would have been a contemporary in the ‘70s,” he told media afterward. “It was very devastating, but they realized that a mistake had been made.” Valenzuela’s second chance came on the Sept. 25 episode and this time he correctly provided the Final Jeopardy clue—good for second place.

Lincoln Helps Explain Spaghetti Mystery Donald W. Lincoln (PH/MA, 1986) is recognized for solving some of the greatest mysteries of physics, like the Higgs Boson. And, recently the senior scientist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory came forward to explain how a spaghetti noodle breaks – or whether it is possible to break a stick cleanly in two. You would think that a stick of spaghetti, when held at each end and bent, would break into two pieces. But as any pasta aficionado knows, that never happens. Instead, it breaks into three or more bits and pieces. Recently, a group of scientists discovered a possible solution to this problem and it was highlighted in an article written by Lincoln on CNN’s website. All it takes, Lincoln says, is a twist. As Lincoln explains, if you twist the stick of spaghetti before bending it, the energy induced goes into relieving the tension by the initial twist. This finding has ramifications toward determining the crack formation of other rod-like structures and other generalized geometries that aren’t cylindrical, like perhaps helicopter or wind turbine blades. The recipient of the Alumni Association’s 2018 Career Achievement Award, Lincoln is a frequent contributor to CNN, produces a series of science education videos and appeared on the NOVA television show.

DOWN MEMORY LANE
A POPULAR PLACE WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS YOUR NAME
I
f Rose-Hulman had a downtown Terre Haute campus annex, it would have to be Sonka Irish Pub. For many decades, this gently rustic Irish pub at the corner of Wabash Avenue and 14th Street has been an off-campus refuge for relaxation and stress relief for countless members of the Rose-Hulman family. “I’ve been in the business 33 years, and pretty much from day one, this has been a home for Rose-Hulman faculty, staff and students,” says Sonka’s owner Sandy Boyles-Gillen. The walls of the pub are liberally decorated with wooden paddles from Rose-Hulman fraternities, including a Sigma Nu paddle from 1944 graduate Robert Dinkel (EE, 1944), whose son, Tom (ME, 1972) followed in his footsteps to campus. “My father and I frequented the pub often over the last several decades. He’s been gone for several years, but seeing his paddle each visit keeps him in our memories,” says Dinkel, currently treasurer of the institute’s Board of Trustees.

On any given night, Rose students, faculty and administrators are easy to spot at Sonka. Past President Jim Conwell and the late President Samuel F. Hulbert were frequent visitors as were virtually every other Rose-Hulman leader from the past. The place is especially lively each Saint Patrick’s Day in celebration of the Patron Saint of Engineers.
NO TRIVIAL FEAT Drop by any Thursday night for Sonka’s big trivia contest and you’d better bring your A-game.
Leprechauns and engineers are welcome at Sonka Irish Pub at the corner of Wabash Avenue and 14th Street in Terre Haute. The establishment has been a favorite hangout for alumni, administrators, faculty and staff.
“There are a lot of students here. It’s nice to see them outside of class. It humanizes us,” says Daniel Chang, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering. He was among professors at the pub during a recent Thursday Trivia Night, which has become a popular hangout activity for young and old alike. Alumnus Jared Tatum, (CHE/CHEM, 2000) met his wife, Natalie, on trivia night. He has been drinking Guinness stout at Sonka since his undergraduate days. Back then, students would down a “yard of beer” on their 21st birthdays, he recalls. “This is where everybody came,” Tatum says. “This really is a ‘Rose-Hulman Bar.’” As with Rose-Hulman, Sonka has evolved a lot over the past several decades, Dinkel says. “It has come a long way. Sandy has invested her time and money to make improvements. This is a great example of how a small business is run and thrives.” The Rose Thorn student newspaper has often reflected the close connection between the campus and the pub. A satirical piece published in 2003 proclaimed Sonka was relocating to the campus’ White Chapel to give the Rose-Hulman community “access to their favorite bar without having to leave campus.” A career advice column in another issue cautioned students against listing their favorite Sonka bartender as a job reference.
Alumnus Jared Tatum (CHE/CHEM, 2000) and wife, Natalie, found their pot of gold by meeting for the first time at the pub. They hosted a rehearsal dinner at the site before tying the knot in Rose-Hulman’s White Chapel.
“Rose-Hulman students and faculty have been entrenched at Sonka for a very long time,” Dinkel says. “The interesting thing is that, when I’m there, I can pick out Rose students over other students. The fraternities have established it as a home. At Homecoming, the first place I hear many inbound alumni go is to Sonka, where they know they will run into old friends. It’s a place everyone can frequent and everybody knows your name.” Sonka’s history dates back to the end of Prohibition when George Sonka, an immigrant from Romania, purchased the building, which previously had served several purposes, including as a cigar store and a pharmacy. Sonka died a few years later, in 1936, and the business passed through various hands over the next several decades. The four most recent owners have been of Irish decent, according to the pub’s official history. Being around Rose-Hulman students over the past 33 years has been a pleasure, says owner Boyles-Gillen. “It’s fun to watch them grow into adults and get ready for their careers. They’re wonderful.” n
The questions cover sports, science, movies, history and much more. And one team of Rose-Hulman professors in particular can be found among the many competitors gulping beer, sharing laughs and (sometimes) answering the trivia questions correctly.
But this is no ordinary trivia team. The Terrehautios, as they affectionately call themselves, won this year’s National Trivia League state championship at the Hard Rock Cafe in Indianapolis on July 29. Now, you can find them honing their skills at Sonka on Thursday nights as they keep their mental powers at peak performance. “We’re smart,” quips one team member, laughing when asked how they answered a tough sports question to capture the state championship. The question was: Name two of the three men who have won both an NCAA football championship and a Super Bowl as a head coach. Stephanie Hill, a visiting assistant professor of biology and biomedical engineering, and teammate Amanda Lubold, a sociology professor at Indiana State University, came up with the correct answer: Pete Carroll, Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer. Winning the state championship gave the team a title to defend next year and a check for $2,500. Faculty members come and go from the “team” as their schedules permit, explains mechanical engineering professor and The Terrehautios ringleader Mike Moorhead. Other faculty who are trivia night contestants include Timothy All, Dan Anastasio, Eva Andrijcic, Rebecca Bercich, Daniel Chang, Simon Jones, Kyle Kershaw, Matt Lovell (CE, 2006), John McSweeney, Stephanie Poland, Kosta Popovic and Fumie Sunahori.

An Introduction
HONOR ROLL OF DONORS
How to Climb a Mountain What do you call it when a snail takes a whole day and moves just a few inches up the side of a mountain? Progress. Every push forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Climbing a mountain, or reaching any goal, happens one step at a time. Rose-Hulman is facing its own mountain. We know Rose-Hulman offers its students an unparalleled STEM education, but it’s our responsibility to make that education affordable to the brightest students, regardless of their financial circumstances. We must also continue to employ the best professors and invest in state-of-the-art buildings and labs. That’s why we’ve launched Mission Driven, our campaign to raise $250 million by the end of 2020. We’ve already climbed more than 60 percent of the way, but there’s still a lot of terrain to cover. Many of our young alumni start giving back to their alma mater as soon as they graduate, frequently taking advantage of matching contributions from their employers. Some, such as Abigail Bennett, target specific facilities or programs for their gifts. Abigail started supporting our Unit Operations Lab soon after she graduated with a chemical engineering degree in 2010. Similarly, Tim Hachfeld, a 2008 electrical engineering alumnus, found ways to support Rose-Hulman soon after beginning his service as a nuclear submarine officer in the U.S. Navy. A recipient of a John and Elizabeth White student scholarship when he was at Rose, Tim wanted to make sure future students have the same opportunities he enjoyed. The message from Abigail, Tim and other alumni is that it’s not necessary to wait until you retire to make a difference at Rose-Hulman. I urge you to start a tradition of giving now, regardless of the size of your annual contribution. I’m honored to be associated with an institution that is so committed to its noble mission of providing the world’s finest science, engineering and mathematics education in an atmosphere of personal attention. As one of our valued friends, I’m sure you feel the same. I ask you to join me in ushering Rose-Hulman into a future of continued excellence, inclusion and progress. To learn how you can make a difference, please reach out to me at brady1@rose-hulman.edu or 812-877-8784. I look forward to working with you as we climb toward our goal, one step at a time.

Improving Lives is a Logical Choice For Bob Murray, it’s all about making a difference. Since graduating from Rose Polytechnic Institute in 1964 with a degree in civil engineering, Murray has striven to improve the lives of people living in northern Illinois and eastern Wisconsin as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Public Health Service and by leading health departments in four counties. Today, Murray and his wife of 55 years, Connie, are making a difference in the lives of young people aspiring to attend Rose-Hulman. They generously created an endowed scholarship as part of their trust, and realizing the present-day need for today’s students, they launched early funding of the scholarship. Now retired, the Murrays are still focused on making a difference for the people around them. While a career in public health didn’t put the Murrays on easy street, it allowed them to raise a family, enjoy a happy life and, now, help aspiring engineers benefit from the top-quality education Rose-Hulman provides.
Bob (CE, 1964) and Connie Murray have established an endowed scholarship to help students afford a Rose-Hulman education.

Giving is Key to Living For Paul and Elaine Georgas, giving is not just something to consider at tax time or during the holidays—it’s a way of life. Paul, a 1977 chemical engineering alumnus, and Elaine, a Saint Mary-of-the-Woods graduate, met at a fraternity party in Terre Haute during their college years. More than 40 years together and two sons later (one, Adam, is a 2007 alumnus), they are happily residing in Mobile, Ala., planning for retirement and living their philosophy of giving—something deeply rooted in their religious beliefs. “When Paul would get paid, our first checks were always our tithes and offerings,” Elaine says. “Then, our bills were paid. There was little money for dinners out and vacations, but we’ve had a blessed life.” As Paul says, he was “not a superior student”—which is why the scholarship he and Elaine have endowed is designed for mid-level scholars with financial need. They have also remembered Rose-Hulman in their estate plan. In recognition of their generous gifts, the Georgases were inducted into the institute’s Chauncey Rose Society in 2017 during Paul’s 40th class reunion.

Young Alumni Give Back in Special Ways Chris Olinger (ME, 2015), left, and Nathan Carlson (CS/SE, 2007) are two of the youngest alumni to achieve Chauncey Rose Society status, both earning their plaid jackets during Homecoming 2017. Through his family’s Geraldine and Emory Ford Foundation, Olinger has covered the cost of replacing elements of the institute’s dynamics controls laboratory, supported the installation of a rock climbing wall in the Sports and Recreation Center and supported the new biomathematics major. They also have established the Emory M. Ford Scholarship to attract new students to the new academic program. Meanwhile, Carlson and his wife, Naphtali, took advantage of Microsoft’s payroll deduction and matching gift programs to support Nathan’s alma mater.

FALL 2018
Get Creative with Tangram Shapes Echoes likes to give you something unique and interesting in each issue. The cover of this fall issue has a tangram of seven distinct flat shapes (tans) that you can punch out and then arrange to form shapes. We’ve started the process by coming up with a series of puzzles, starting with Rose-Hulman’s popular ‘R’ logo on the backside of this page.

PARTIN G SHOT New Matriculation Tradition: Alumni fondly recall the emotions of their final walk through campus in the processional toward Commencement. As a new feature of New Student Orientation, first-year students were led through campus by Provost Anne Houtman, Dean of Students Erik Hayes and faculty leaders at the close of the institute’s first matriculation ceremony. It made for a special moment for the Class of 2022 and their families and friends. (Photo by Bryan Cantwell)
