INTRODUCTION On Your Campus...

Alabama president dr. Stuart R. bell

Dr. Stuart R. Bell became the 29th president of The University of Alabama on July 15, 2015. Founded in 1831, the University is the state’s flagship and a student-centered, comprehensive research university. Dr. Bell has broad administrative experience and is a nearly 30-year veteran of higher education. He previously served at UA for 16 years where he founded and directed an interdisciplinary research center. “I certainly look forward to leading this university as its next president and working alongside the many men and women who have made it a great university today and who will also make it a great university in the future,” Bell said on the day he was named UA president. “It’s just great to be here in Tuscaloosa, and it’s great to be in Alabama and to, once again, be able to say Roll Tide!” Immediately prior to becoming UA’s president, Dr. Bell was executive vice president and provost at Louisiana State University. During Dr. Bell’s tenure there and earlier at the University of Kansas, where he served as dean of its College of Engineering, those institutions opened new facilities, and student recruitment, retention and success were emphasized. First joining UA in 1986 as an assistant professor in the UA College of Engineering’s department of mechanical engineering, Dr. Bell was named department head nine years later. With research interest in combustion engines, Dr. Bell has expertise in alternative fuels for engines, innovative engine designs and modeling of engine and engine processes. He directed UA’s Center for Advanced Vehicle Technologies. Dr. Bell was awarded the Society of Automotive Engineers’ Ralph Teetor Award for Outstanding Contributions to Research and Teaching in 1988. He was presented the T. Morris Hackney Faculty Leadership Award for the UA College of Engineering in 2001, and, in 2005, he received the Richard S. Woodbury Award from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. A native of Abilene, Texas, Dr. Bell earned a nuclear engineering degree from Texas A&M University in 1979. He earned his master’s and doctorate degrees in mechanical engineering from Texas A&M in 1981 and 1986, respectively. He and his wife, Susan, have three adult children, Stuart, Stacy and Stephen.

62 ALABAMA SWIMMING & DIVING Records & History ALABAMA ON THE NATIONAL SCENE

Since 1976, when they finished fourth, the Alabama Crimson Tide has finished in the top 25 nationally 26 times, including 15 finishes in the top 15. Over the past decade, Alabama has posted seven top-30 finishes, including three in the top 20. Over that same span, 18 members of the Tide have produced 67 All-America honors - a group that includes Olympic bronze medalist and 13-time All-American Anne Poleska, who turned in four top-three NCAA 200 breaststroke finishes. The Crimson Tide women competed in the AIAW division from 1974 to 1981, after which time they moved into the NCAA. While in the AIAW, the Tide had six top-20 finishes, the highest being fourth at the 1976 championships. The Tide moved to the NCAA in 1982. Since that time, Alabama has posted seven top-10 finishes, the highest being a fifth-place finish at the 1983 championship. The Tide lays claim to eight individual national collegiate titles. Lane Bassham won the most recent in 2004, taking the top honors off the 3-meter diving board. She was also second off the 1-meter board that same year and was named Diver of the Meet at the NCAA Championships while Pat Greenwell was named Diving Coach of the Meet at the same championships. The Crimson Tide has produced 101 All-Americans since Betsy Saunders earned Alabama’s first honors in 1974.

In 1975, legendary Crimson Tide head coach Don Gambril decided to create the Alabama Swimming Hall of Fame to honor those Tide swimmers, divers and related personnel who had made outstanding contributions to the Crimson Tide program through superb performances. Former head coach and Tide swimming legend Jonty Skinner was the first member to be inducted into the Hall of Fame on the strength of his NCAA Championship and world record, both in the 100 freestyle. In the fall of 2011, Aaron Fleshner was inducted into the hall after earning a place on the United States’ World Championship team. Betsy Saunders, Alabama’s first female All-American also earning a place in the hall in 2011. Like the 1960 men’s team, Saunders was inducted as a Crimson Tide pioneer. Since Skinner was inducted in 1975, the Hall of Fame has grown to 39 individual members and the 1960 team.

An athlete must meet one of eight require- ments to be eligible for induction: 1. AIAW or NCAA champion in an individual event 2. Member of the U.S. Olympic Team 3. Finalist at the Olympic Games 4. Member of the U.S. World Championship Team 5. Finalist at the World Championships 6. Pan-American or Pan-Pacific Games individual medalist 7.
