Conoco presents $10,000 to the COE. Left to right: Robert Marley, John Sears, Terry Indreland and Linda Thompson. MONTANA STATE UNIVERSITY / BOZEMAN NG CO GI OF MSU’s Chemical Engineering Department celebrated a milestone this summer with a $10,000 donation from Conoco. This puts Conoco’s support of the department over the last 15 years at more than half a million dollars. Company representatives Linda Schrage Thompson, ’84 ChemE, Terry Indreland (ret.), ’68 ChemE, and public affairs director John Bennitt presented the gift in July. “Conoco’s gifts have provided not only funds to purchase equipment but also the flexibility to allow students to design and build equipment they will use,” said John Sears, ChemE department head. Conoco’s support over the years has included a donation of $75,000 in 1991 for MSU’s Engineering Research Center. Since 1995, the company has given $260,000 for the EPS Chemical Process Laboratory. Conoco has also funded American Indian Science Scholarships. “The Chemical Process Lab work includes developing scientific approaches which have special interest to Conoco.” said Jay Churchill, general manager of Conoco’s Billings refinery. Conoco’s giving to MSU has been fueled in part by the urging of more than 50 MSU grads employed by Conoco. Conoco is the fourth largest U.S. petroleum company and a major integrated energy company with operations in more than 40 countries. It operates pipelines across Montana, the state’s largest refinery in Billings, and has an active marketing network throughout Montana.

The gift, made through the Gilhousen Family Foundation, is the largest gift in MSU history. Neither of the Gilhousens attended MSU, but made the gift because of their commitment to MSU and to a program that deeply interests them. Gilhousen is a pioneer in CDMA technology used in digital wireless communications such as digital Recruitment is underway for a prominent cell phones. He was part of a team of seven that in specialist to fill the new Gilhousen Chair in 1985 founded a small Telecommunications. company in San This individual will help Diego which became develop a nationally QUALCOMM. recognized telecommunications program at MSU.

MSU awarded Gilhousen an Undergraduate Scholars Program. The first seven honorary doctorate degree in May. scholarships of $3,500 each have been awarded for Gilhousen also serves on advisory boards for the fall. Peterson expects that scholarship number to COE, the ECE department and the Burns grow to 12 within the next one to two years. Telecommunications Center. Robert J. Marley Named COE Dean Robert J. Marley, an industrial engineer and specialist in ergonomics who has been at MSU’s College of Engineering for more than a decade, has been appointed dean of the college. Marley served as interim dean since the retirement of David Gibson. He was selected at the conclusion of a national search, and his three-year appointment began July 1, 2001. Marley is a graduate of Wichita State University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in general science and subsequently worked as a rehabilitation engineer for a nationally prominent disability research group. He returned to WSU 1 and received a master’s and Ph.D. in industrial engineering specializing in ergonomics. Marley came to MSU in 1990 as an assistant professor in the Industrial & Management Engineering Department. In 1994 he received the Dow Outstanding New Faculty Award by the American Society for Engineering Education. He held the position of associate dean for the college from 1995-2000.

Embry-Riddle is a small private university specializing in aviation science and aerospace engineering. Joel Cahoon will serve as interim department head in CE through July 2002. Joel served as a professor at MSU and conducts research in the area of water resources engineering. Robert Mokwa also joins the CE faculty this fall teaching soils classes. He has a strong academic background in geotechnical and structural engineering. LTC Charles Kibben arrived at MSU in June to replace LTC Duane Carlton as the professor of military science for the Army ROTC program. Kibben is a career soldier and Ordnance Officer who has served in North Carolina, Washington, Kansas, Honduras, Germany and the UK. Baldev Thapar, Harley Leach and Hobart McWillliams recently retired from EE. James Smith, ECE, has returned to the private sector. James Becker joins the faculty to teach communications. His background is high frequency properties of materials, wave guides, and applications using MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) fabrication techniques. Todd Kaiser will teach electro-magnetics. His background is in MEMS with applications to fiber optic switching, electromagnetic theory and applications. Joseph Shaw joins us to teach electro-optics. His work is in optical sciences and remote sensing, imaging, and atmosphere effects on transmissions. Frank Albini and Joel Troxler recently retired from M&IE. Gary Chen joins the faculty to teach industrial and management engineering classes. His background is in concurrent engineering, CAD/CAM/CIM. ChemE welcomes Joe Seymour who will teach transport analysis and general engineering. His interests and research are in nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. CS said goodbye to Brenda Sonderegger who retired last spring after serving 10 years as an adjunct instructor. Montana Manufacturing Extension Center (MMEC) has three new consulting field engineers: Paddy Fleming, ’90 ME (Kalispell); Alan Deibert, ’88 I&ME, ’90 MS I&ME (Bozeman); and Dale Detrick, (Billings). Montana State University engineering students are partnering with the Montana Space Grant Consortium and NASA in researching new designs for aerodynamic shapes for space vehicles. The research group consists of graduate and undergraduate students in mechanical engineering, mechanical engineering technology, and chemical engineering, and is led by M&IE Professor Doug Cairns. They are building prototype structures for the SHARP (Slender Hypervelocity Aerothermodynamic Research Probes) S1 re-entry vehicle. These shapes require new advanced ceramic thermal protection systems, which NASA is researching in tandem. Current design for the vehicle utilizes carbon/epoxy and machined aluminum. All design and manufacturing work is the responsibility of MSU students. MSU’s S1 vehicle is scheduled to be launched this fall near Casper, Wyoming. The goal of the flight will be to test flight systems and evaluate the basic aerodynamic properties of the SHARP body during re-entry. The project continues with new designs and testing phases running through the SHARP S4 launch in fall 2003. For project information, visit the MSU’s SHARP S1 Web site at http://www.coe.montana.edu/me/ faculty/cairns/sharp or the NASA Ames Research Center page at http://asm.arc.nasa.gov/projects/ sharp/sharp.shtml. Tektronix Interdisciplinary Design Team This past year, Tektronix sponsored an interdisciplinary design project for seniors from I&ME, ME, and EE. Bringing students together from several engineering disciplines made this a special project for all involved, increasing the complexity of the project across-the-board. In addition to supporting design projects, Tektronix provides COE students with valuable internship opportunities and regularly recruits and hires MSU students. The company also supports faculty research and donates state-of-the-art equipment to the COE. MSU is one of eight key schools for the firm and both the company and the COE benefit from this affiliation.

Lester Hogan Honored A love of young people and teaching highlight a lifetime of giving for one of MSU’s most distinguished engineering alumni, C. Lester Hogan. “His whole goal in life has been to teach others what he knew,” explains Audrey Hogan, his wife of 55 years. “He always has had a constant drive for education and he instilled the desire to learn in others. He’s a helper, a mentor, and at heart–a professor.” Lester Hogan is a 1942 chemical engineering alumnus of MSU. While at MSU, Les Hogan caught the eye of Dean Cobleigh who recognized the student’s brilliance. “He came to MSU during the depression era and the school gave him his first opportunity to be educated,” Mrs. Hogan said. After receiving his master’s and doctorate in physics from Lehigh University, Les’ notable career in the electronics field includes pioneer work at Bell Labs, where he invented the microwave gyrator. He became a professor at Harvard at the age of 33. For 10 years he was a senior vice president and general manager at Motorola, during which time it became the largest manufacturer of semiconductors in the world. He also served as president and later as vice chairman of the Fairchild Corporation in the Silicon Valley. In 1980, Electronics Magazine named Hogan “One of the Ten Greatest Innovators in the Past 50 Years.” Dr. Hogan has received honorary doctorates in engineering from MSU in 1967 and Lehigh in 1971, and an honorary doctorate in science from Worcester Polytechnic University in 1969. He received a Berkeley Citation in 1981. Les and Audrey met and were married while Les was a graduate student at Lehigh and they have been lifelong partners in all major career decisions. Dr. Hogan continues to feel a fondness for and a connection to MSU. He served on both the Department of Chemical Engineering and the 8 College of Engineering Advisory Councils and held a leadership role in the planning and fund raising for the Engineering/Physical Sciences Building. Currently Les and Audrey are retired and live in Northern California. Dr. and Mrs. Hogans’ generosity to Montana State includes chairing the fund-raising committee for the new Engineering Physical Sciences Building through 1997, and contributing the lead gift for the building. The beautiful atrium in the new building is named in their honor. They have also supported some of MSU’s most outstanding engineering and science students through endowed scholarships. The college’s annual fund has also benefited from the Hogans’ generous support. Their gifts have been key to the college being able to obtain the latest computer and laboratory equipment. This spring, Dr. and Mrs. Hogan were honored for their long-time support to the college when they were awarded MSU’s prestigious Excellence in Philanthropy Award. The College extends it congratulations and heartfelt thanks to Dr. C. Lester and Mrs. Audrey Hogan.
