The Frederick Emmons Terman Engineering Scholastic Award

The Frederick Emmons Terman Engineering Scholastic Award is presented to the students that rank academically in the top 5 percent of the graduating senior class. Each recipient nominates a high school teacher who has been most influential in the student's academic career. Terman, who was dean of the School of Engineering from 1944 to 1958, initiated this award program, which is now named in his honor.

Dean Jim Plummer recognized the following honorees for the 2008-09 academic year on April 25, 2009. Read coverage of the event here.
