On Thursday, May 31, administrators, faculty and staff gathered to dedicate a new bench between Sponsel Hall and Shambaugh Hall in honor of Jean Deller, Ph.D., associate vice president for academics.
Deller retired the next day, June 1. She had been honored with the rank of professor emeritus at the commencement breakfast on May 5.
Deller has worked at Trine since 1980, when she began teaching in Tri-State University’s Department of Education. During that time, she has held countless positions in the university’s education, athletic and administrative departments while continuing to instruct courses in the education department.
Two Trine University students — Chloe Laird, a chemical engineering major from Warsaw, Indiana, and Makenzie Amich, a forensic science major from Thorntown, Indiana — recently had the opportunity to connect with thousands of chemistry professionals and students from across the country at the American Chemical Society (ACS) national meeting in Chicago.
The Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society recently named Trine University pre-med biology student Lauren Hillin of Charlotte, North Carolina, its Foy-Sagabiel Undergraduate Scholar Leader of the Year.
Steuben County community members are invited to join Trine University students and alumni and local businesses for Breaking the Silence Together, the university's inaugural mental health walk, beginning at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 26.
