ME senior James Pikul (right) received the College of Engineering's Lisle Abbot Rose Memorial Award during the May 1st 2009 MechSE Awards Banquet and Honorary Society Initiation. Thirty MechSE undergraduates and three graduate students received awards at the event (see awards page), and an additional 30 students were initiated into the mechanical engineering honor society, Pi Tau Sigma.
The Lisle Abbot Rose Memorial Award is awarded annually to a senior engineering student who most nearly approaches the ideal of technical excellence combined with cultural breadth, depth and sensitivity. Friends of Lisle Abbott Rose, a former director of public information for the College of Engineering, established the fund that now honors his memory.
