Dr. Lois Veath, Chadron State College vice president for academic affairs, is one of two people who received the University of Wyoming College of Education’s Distinguished Alumni Award on Friday, April 23.

The award was presented during the Distinguished Alumni/Distinguished Former Faculty Awards Luncheon at Laramie.

Veath, who earned a doctorate in curriculum and instruction from UW in 1988, assumed her current responsibilities at Chadron State in 2005, 25 years after she first joined the college's faculty as an adjunct chemistry instructor. Veath also served as director of the CSC Science and Mathematics Learning Center, which she established and patterned after the center at UW, director of the CSC Planetarium, chairperson of CSC Department of Science and dean of Arts and Sciences.

The other recipient of the Distinguished Alumni Award was the late William G. Berube, professor emeritus of educational leadership. Distinguished Former Faculty Awards were presented to Lydia Z. Kercher and Arnold L. Willems.
