| About
the Program
In celebration of the bond between the written word and the achievement
of scholars, the UCSC Libraries, the Jack Baskin School of Engineering,
and the Division of Physical and Biological Sciences are proud to
sponsor the second annual Honored Faculty, Honored Books
Program. This joint initiative recognizes the achievements of faculty
in engineering and the natural sciences who have attained tenure
and/or promotion. The occasion is marked by the celebration of both
the scholar and a book they select as having most influenced them
as a scientist and educator. The faculty and their selected books
are celebrated with a gala reception held in the Science Library.
The honored book is added to the library collection and inscribed
with a personalized bookplate in their honor. This commemorative
web site showcases the titles that the faculty selected along with
their description of the significance of the book to their lives
and careers.
