Ersted Awards Honor Koplin, Stromberg
Two members of the Univer
sity faculty were honored June
12 at the University’s 89th an
nual commencement exercises
with the announcement of the
Ersted Awards for Distinguished
Teaching.
The awards, highest given to
members of the teaching faculty,
went to Harry Thomas Koplin,
professor of economics, and to
Karl Robert Stromberg, associate
professor of mathematics.
This is the second year that
the two of the $1,000 awards have
been given. Prior to 1965. a single
Ersted Award had been made
annually since 1957.
The awards are made available
through a trust fund from the
late A. J. Ersted of Atherton,
Calif., who expressed the wish
that the money be used to en
courage and reward distinguish
ed teaching and that the awards
be made to relatively young mem
bers of the faculty who have de
onstrated exceptional ability to
induce students to reason rather
than to memorize.
In Ersted's words, the awards
should “stimulate an interest in
inspired teaching in the class
room and in conference.”
The Ersted Fund, with the
awards made from accumulated
interest, is administered by the
University Development Fund.
