| The Columbia Engineering School Alumni Association’s
awards dinner honored Egleston Medalists Helmut (Hap) Schulz,
center, and Masanobu Shinozuka, extreme right. From left to

commemorated Veterans Day; K. Daniel Libby ’82, ’84,
President of the Alumni Association; Richard Hertzberg ’75,
who nominated Dr. Schulz; Dr. Schulz, Dean Zvi Galil, University
President Lee C. Bollinger, and Dr. Shinozuka. Dr. Schulz ’33,
’34, ’42 (chemical engineering) was cited for developing
methods using gas centrifuges to separate and concentrate U-235;
seminal contributions that led to the development of the maser
and laser, and creating an environmentally benign process to
convert municipal and toxic waste to electricity. Dr. Shinozuka
’60 (Ph.D. in civil engineering and engineering mechanics)
was recognized as a dominant intellectual leader in the establishment
of probabilistic mechanics, structural reliability, and risk
assessment. |
