Thirieth Annual Report to the Alumni

May 19, 1978 Dear Alumni:

This has been another eventful year for our department; I am pleased now to greet you and tell you some of the highlights •

This year ACE Day will be held on Friday, May 19. I hope that many of you will be able to come back at that time. We especially look forward to greeting the members of the anniversary classes of 1918, 1923, 1928, 1933, 1938, 1943, 1948, 1953, 1958, 1963, 1968, and 1973. A registra­tion form for the ACE Day luncheon is enclosed in this report.

Being chairman after Joe Koffolt and Sy is truly a tough act to follow. Meetings with alumni and industrial representatives have made me keenly aware of the great job they did, the esteem in which Ohio State Univer­sity chemical engineers are held, and the attachment the graduates have for the department. Ed Haering' s work as Acting Chairman was in the same tradition. I will certainly try to carry on in this tradition. Our goals are to maintain the fine undergraduate training experience our stu­dents have always had, and to increase the research effectiveness and visibility of the department. This will be no easy task in a time of rapidly increasing student enrollments and slowly increasing budgets. I believe, however, that with the faculty we have (plus the additional staff we are actively seeking) and with the support of our alumni, we will be able to meet this challenge

There is, of course, an intimate tie-in between increased enrollments and the need for additional faculty. Our undergraduate enrollments continue to rise. We have 55 seniors, 7 5 juniors and 90 sophomores this year. Graduate enrollment has not yet increased proportionally. Industry is readily absorbing all of our graduates, and clamoring for more. This year's average salary offer to B. S. graduates will be between $18, 000 and $19, 000 per year.

As many of you may have heard, Sy and Karlis Svanks retired last year. Fortunately, both are often around the building doing research and pro­viding help when called upon. A report on the faculty retirement party for them is on Page 4 •

I have had the opportunity to meet a number of you personally and I look forward to meeting many more of you. The faculty (and other staff members) join me in sending best wishes to each of you. We greatly value your continued interest and support. We hope to see many of you at this year's ACE Day events. Please keep us posted on your activities.

Sincerely,

OHIO STATE: ZAKIN NAMED CHEMICAL ENGINEERING HEAD

Dr. Jacques L. Zakin is the new chairman of the department of chemical engineering at Ohio State University. A native of Far Rockaway, New York, he received the bachelor of chemical engineering degree from Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, in 1949. Also in chemical engineering, he received from Columbia University in 1950 the master of science degree, followed by the doctorate degree in engineering science from New York University awarded in 1959.

Zakin is a specialist in fluid mechanics with active research interests centering on drag reducing flows, turbulent transport of crude oil-water emul­sions, and the structure of turbulence. Since 1962 he taught at the University of Missouri, Rolla, and also headed programs for minorities in engineering and women in engineering.

For a year he served as a visiting scientist at the Naval Research Labo­ratory in Washington, D.C., and in 1968 was a visiting professor of chemical engineering at the Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa.

Veteran of a decade of research and development assignments with Socony Mobil Oil Company in Brooklyn and Flintkote ReseaFch Labs in Whippany, New Jersey, Zakin is author or co-author of nearly 60 technical publications. He also holds five patents which relate to lubricating grease and drag reduction in turbulent flows.

He is a member of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, the Society of Rheology, the American Chemical Society, and the American Society for Engineering Education. He is also a member of the honorary groups Sigma Xi, Tau Beta .Pi, Phi Lambda Upsilon and Omega Chi Epsilon.

Excerpted from News in Engineering, November, 19 77

Thank You, Sy and Karl This past year was marked with the retirement of Aldrich Syverson and Karlis Svanks o We know that each of you joins with us in expressing our sincere appreciation for the years of dedicated and devoted service that Sy and Karl have given to the department, the University and our profession. We are de­lighted that both plan to maintain an office in the department so that we will continue to be able to enjoy their friendship as well as their counsel and advice. All of us wish them many years of continued happiness and success as they start another phase in their rich and rewarding lives.

ALDRICH SYVERSON joined the faculty in 1950 by way of Syracuse University and served as Chairman of the department from 1968 to 1976, Before entering academe, he was employed by the B. F. Goodrich Chemical Company where he was responsible for organizing the Avon Lake Experiment Station and served as its first Manager. Sy has provided inspiration and dedicated leadership to all aspects of academic life. Students, alumni, faculty colleagues, profes­sional and industrial counterparts all hold him in the highest regard. Sy has the rare talent of being able to effectively bridge the gap between theory and prac­tice in a most meaningful way o This not only makes him a most inspiring teacher and researcher but actively sought after as an industrial consultant. His profes­sional and personal standards continuously provide targets for all of us to follow o

KARLIS SVANKS came to Ohio State as a Research Associate in the Engineering Experiment Station in 1950 and he was assigned to the station on a full-time basis. He received his B. ChE. and M. S. degrees in chemical engineering from the University of Latvia o He had a number of years of industrial experi­ence in Latvia before immigrating to the United States. He received his PhD from our department in 19 66 and was promoted to Associate Professor in 1972 o

Karl is an outstanding experimentalist and has worked on many projects through the station. These have been primarily in the areas of water pollution and coal research. He has served as the thesis advisor to some 17 M. S. students. Karl unselfishly gives of his time and talents to all who seek his advice and counsel.

In December, the faculty, staff and their spouses proudly recognized at a retire­ment dinner in their honor the many contributions and accomplishments of Sy and Karl. A few pictures of the evening's activities follow.

Greetings:

While preparing this annual note to you, I have reviewed the Alumni reports of the past which now covers almost three decades of activities of the Department. The review brings back many cherished memories of associations with many of you during your student days as well as later after graduation. These are significant rewards to one in education.

We were saddened by the death of Joe Koffolt last May. Few in our profession have contributed as much as he did through his professional competence and his untiring devotion to per­sonal human relations. I am sure you share with me a feeling of gratitude for his leadership, concern and compassion.

We were pleased to welcome Dr. Jacques L. Zakin who was appointed Chairman of the Department last summer. Jack came to us with outstanding credentials. He is doing an excellent job as chairman and is a most valuable addition to the faculty. Last year while a search for a new chairman was being made, Ed Haering served as Acting Chairman: we are grateful to him for serving so well during the interim period.

On a personal note, following retirement from the University at the end of the Summer quarter, I had open-heart surgery. My re­covery has been very good and I am now completing some research and writing. I am grateful to have the opportunity to do so in a university environment.

As I look back over the twenty- seven years that I have been associated with Ohio State, I am impressed with the important role that alumni have played. I would like to take this oppor­tunity to offer my sincere thanks for your help and interest.

Best wishes.

Sincerely,

. "I

Dear Alumni:

Writing these couple of lines, I wonder: Is it really more than twenty-seven years since I joined The Ohio State University, first at the Engineering Experiment Station and later at the Department of Chemical Engineering? Why does it appear to me as so short a period of time? The answer is there and has been for a long time - it is the very friendly academic environment that I was given the opportunity to enjoy. Thank you, faculty and staff.

My sincere thanks to: the Late Dr. Joseph Koffolt, chairman, for encouraging me to work towards a Ph.D.; Dr. Aldrich Syverson, chairman and adviser of research for my Ph.D; and Dr. Edwin Smith (since April 1, 1950) for advice and help to a new-comer to the U.S.A. and o.s.u.

People frequently ask me what makes me run and feel so young? Does not one feel young again working with students, advising them in their research for M.Sc. degrees, observing their enthusiasm and hopes for the future, and hearing that they succeed in their lives? Indeed one feels young again. At least I do.

Recently I have been working on the Lake Erie Nutrient Control Program and, therefore, still have the opportunity to enjoy the friendly academic atmosphere of the Chemical Engineering Department, thanks to the chairman, Dr. Zakin, who has already contributed so much to the high academic standing of the Chemical Engineering Department.

Sincere~
