Acoustic Guitarists to Play at UT Feb. 12

Preston Reed and David Stevenson, two premiere acoustic guitarists, will perform in concert at The University of Toledo Center for Performing Arts Recital Hall on Wednesday. Feb. 12, at 8 p.m. They also will give a lecture and demonstration on their contrasting guitar styles the same day from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Recital Hall. Reed, a soloist for more than 15 years, burst onto the music scene in 1979 and became known for his quick finger-picking technique on the 12-string guitar. In the mid-1980s, he started experimenting by using the guitax body as a percussion instrument. Reed created a style of playing where both hands are on the fret board. His 10th release, Metal, showcases his intense percussive guitar-playing. Stevenson exclusively plays a nylon-string guitar. He has composed more than 40 works for solo guitar and released his first disc, Echoes of an hmer Domain, last year. Stevenson's quiet, contemplative music is known for its muted tones. He is a faculty member at Brevard College and Clemson University, where he directs applied guitar studies. Both the concert and the lecture are free, public events.

Chemist to Address Green Science, Environmental Concerns

Dr. Robert A. Laudise, adjunct chemical director at Bell Laboratories-Lucent Technologic.,,. will discuss the role of industrial ecology to preserve the environment on Thursday, Feb. 20, at 4 p.m. in The University of Toledo's McMaster Hall Room 1005. His talk, "The Role of Materials in Sustainable Development," will address ways to utilize materials science and engineering to protect the environment. "Industrial ecology views industrial processes and products as part of larger ecological systems and seeks to design products and processes which are benign to the environment," Laudise said. "Competitive industries in the 21st century require that we get to the root causes of our environmental difficulties and design things right. Substantial steps toward green products and processes have already been made in the electronic, ceramic and automobile industries." Freon elimination and lead reduction are two examples Laudise pointed out. In order to protect the environment, scientists and engineers need to be educated, he said. While at UT, Laudise will be presented with the Wilhelm Eitel Medallion tot Excellence in Silicate Science. The lifetime achievement award recognizes his studies of hydrothermal quartz crystals, which are used in quartz watches and for telecommunication purposes. Laudise joined Bell Labs in 1956 and has served as materials research director, physical and inorganic chemistry research director, and materials and processing director. His research has focused on solid state chemistry, materials science, conservation and crystal growth. He also is an adjunct professor of materials science at MIT and an adjunct professor of ceram, Jcs at Rutgers. Laudise is cditor-in-chief of thG Journal of Materials Research and author of the book, The Growth of Single Cmstals. His numerous memberships include the American Chemical Society, the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Science. Laudise received the bachelor of science degree in chemistry in 1952 from Union College in Schenectady, N.Y., and his doctoral degree in inorganic chemistry from MIT in 1956.

"'While the faculty members, depm'tments and colleges that partner with us in outreach and lifelong learning receive numerous direct and indirect awards, we would like to recognize a select set of key individuals that have been so instrumental in our early growth." Adams was honored for his outstanding teaching in the adult liberal studies program on-site at Toledo's Jeep plant and his supportiveness of lifelong lemners. Among the many positive things said about Adams. Dr. Judy Hample, UT senior vice president, said, "'I heard about a great teacher, a counselor, a friend. I also heard about an individual who changes the lives of those ound him -- the ultimate mark of a good teacher." Benjamin was nominated by the Division of Distance L.em'ning for using technology to design a pilot program of distance education to teach communication classes. Hample said, "Through outstanding cooperation and excellent teaching, he has forever changed the way that we teach at UT." Jabarin was nominated based on the quality of the specialized plastics progranl he conducts in a partnership with University College. The program has drawn many national and international participants and has been rated outstanding by the individuals and organizations involved. He said he appreciated the opportunity that teaching outreach programs provides, to "do exactly what I was educated to do." Jabarin also said that his programs often are a source of ideas -- More -- 2 for further research for the College of Engineering's graduate studies. Hample said, "By partnering with University College's Division of Continuing Education, Jabarin has found a way to share a state-of-the-art research facility with students around the world." Koenigseker was nominated by the Division of Contract Education for his cooperation in leading his department's efforts in partnering in the University's customized on-site education projects with industrial organizations, such as UAW/Ford, Teledyne and Jeep. Hample said, "From Lima to Cleveland, he and his department have set new and excellent standards for off- campus education in the engineering technologies." Patterson, nominated by University College's Adult Student Assistance Center for his long-standing efforts in the University's outreach to community school systems and for his support in developing off-campus programs, was noted by Hample not only for his own teaching but also for his efforts supporting "others to take their talents to the schools and hospitals that provide remarkable learning laboratories for students and teachers alike." Wilcox, nominated by the Division of Organization Development for her positive teaching style and "'uncanny ability to elicit a constructive contribution from everyone," was also recognized by Hample for her role in a partnership UT is building with UAW and Ford. Hample said, "Through cooperation and outstanding teaching, Wilcox has successfully demonstrated that outreach and lifelong learning make sense, especially in northwest Ohio."
