Thomas Van Koevering

Thomas retired in 2002 after a 33-year career that included not only distinguished service in the classroom but also a great deal of science-education outreach in the community. He earned the 1988 Founders Association Award for Excellence in Community Outreach. He coordinated the Northeastern Wisconsin (NEW) Science Forum for middle and high school teachers, which brought teachers to campus to gain up-to-date information in the sciences and to network with scientists and each other. He also earned the Alumni Award in Science Education from Western Michigan University, his alma mater.
