Each quarter, the department recognizes academic excellence on the part of our students. The awards are named in memory of Professor Noel E. Moore, an outstanding educator and faculty leader on campus for 30 years. Moore served for a decade as head of the Department of Chemical Engineering, was an early leader of Operation Catapult, and was a key advocate for making the institute co-educational. He was named an emeritus faculty member after his retirement in 1998. He passed away in 2018.
WINTER QUARTER 2019-20 NOEL E. MOORE AWARD WINNERS
Jared C. Kasper (Sophomore)
Jared Kasper is recognized for his enthusiasm and eagerness to learn. Professor Adam Nolte, chemical engineering department head, notes.

Most importantly, Nolte adds, "Jared is always willing to help other students master the material not only during lectures but also outside of the classroom. Congratulations, Jared."
Ezenna K. Cmadu (Junior)
Ezenna is receiving the Noel Moore Award for his contributions to the openness of the classroom environment. As Nolte says, "Ezenna is always willing to ask clarifying questions when he doesn’t fully understand something, which helps others in the class who are also struggling with the given concept. These questions often open wider class discussions, leading to a more open environment for learning. It is clear that he has a desire to truly understand the class material. Keep up the good work, Ezenna!"
Connor E. Ray (Senior)
