Rizal will be 'surfing' while doing research between University of Santa Barbara and Pasadena all summer. He will be working with a mentor who is the very best in the field this summer, which will open many doors for graduate school, where he is planning to go next year. Ketelsen, C: Christian Ketelsen, a WSU senior Honors student has been named the first Outstanding Undergraduate Research Scholar for 2003 by the College of Sciences. Christian will receive a B.A in philosophy and a B.S. in mathematics when he graduates in May. Last summer Christian worked on an applied mathematics research project with professor of mathematics and associate dean of sciences V.S. Manoranjan in a Department of Mathematics internship program. His research concerned creating mathematical models to understand the effect of light intensity on sleep patterns. Congratulations! Maloney, S: Scott Maloney received the Outstanding Undergraduate Research Scholar award for March 2002. This award is from the College of Sciences and comes with a $250 book award. Phelps. M: Matthew Phelps' work, "Drinking Trends at WSU: Simply the Facts," appeared in the Spokesman-Review in early May, 2002, as a commentary piece. It was placed in Sunday's Perspective section, as the front-page story of that section. It was a full-page piece, and he received feedback from many readers across the Inland Northwest (as did I!). - Betsy Krueger Powell, R: Rebecca Powell, Electrical Engineering, has been awarded a National Science Foundation Fellowship to complete her Doctorate in Electrical Engineering. She also won the Best Poster award at CDADIC (Center for the Design of Analog Digital Integrated Circuits) Conference in Lincoln City, Oregon.
