INTRODUCTION On Your Campus...

Alabama President Dr. Stuart R. bell

The Board of Trustees of The University of Alabama System named Dr. Stuart R. Bell president of The University of Alabama on June 18, 2015. A nearly 30-year veteran of higher education, Bell was previously executive vice president and provost at Louisiana State University, where he served as both the chief academic officer and the chief operating officer of LSU. These responsibilities at LSU included oversight of all academic, research and student programs and coordination of related fiscal operations. “The University of Alabama is such a vibrant community,” said Bell. “I’m excited about UA and its positive impact on our community and the nation, and I look forward to the even greater achievements that we will seek in working together.” “I’m honored by this selection and the confidence displayed in my abilities, and I look forward to learning and listening to others about our campus, our programs and the aspirations we have for this great university. Susan and I are thrilled to return to Tuscaloosa and are looking forward to renewing old friendships and creating new ones.” During Bell’s tenure, LSU opened new facilities, including residence halls, and made additions to engineering and chemistry buildings. Student retention and success were emphasized, and recruitment efforts yielded the largest freshman class in LSU history. Online programs were also expanded, and the campus developed a new strategic plan for LSU’s research and discovery efforts. Before joining LSU, Bell served for 10 years as dean of the University of Kansas School of Engineering. During that time, he led an expansion of facilities and research, including efforts to establish multiple major research centers; increased student recruitment; and developed extensive experience in fundraising. Bell previously served 16 years at The University of Alabama. He joined UA in 1986 as an assistant professor in the University’s department of mechanical engineering. Nine years later, he was named department head, where he served until accepting the Kansas deanship in 2002. With research interest in combustion engines, Bell has expertise in alternative fuels for engines, innovative engine designs and modeling of engine and engine processes. He founded and directed UA’s Center for Advanced Vehicle Technologies, an interdisciplinary research center. Bell, who was inducted as an Engineering Departmental Fellow by UA’s department of mechanical engineering, 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. An Abilene, , native, 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 — a UA graduate — and Stephen, and one granddaughter.

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. Since 2000, Alabama has posted eight top-30 finishes, including five in the top 25. Over that same span, 23 members of the Tide have produced 73 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 106 All-Americans since Betsy Saunders earned Alabama’s first honors in 1974.

SWIMMING & DIVING HALL OF FAME

In 1975, legendary Crimson Tide head coach Don Gambril created 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 2016, Kristian Gkolomeev was inducted into the hall after becoming the first UA swimmer or diver to earn three NCAA championships in a career. Since Skinner was inducted in 1975, the Hall of Fame has grown to 41 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. One male and one female athlete is chosen as Athlete of the Decade for outstanding contribution to the program. 8. An individual or group that is deemed a pioneer of the program. 2011 Hall of Fame Inductee Aaron Fleshner
