Virginia Military Institute VMI PARENTS COUNCIL The VMI Parents Council was formed in 1957 to provide information and assistance to the parents of cadets attending VMI. Members of the Parents Council are selected from parents of cadets in the upper three classes. The purposes of the Parents Council are to develop closer ties between parents and VMI; to help parents serve as ambassadors for VMI; and to assist the Institute in providing for the welfare and development of cadets. The Council is to be a sounding board to help cadets and their families gain the most from VMI. If the Council can help a parent understand VMI and provide a ready source of information to all cadets and parents, then it has met its challenge. The Parents Council meets formally twice a year at VMI. The fall meeting is held on Parents Weekend. Council representatives regularly attend VMI events to answer questions and act as hosts and hostesses. VMI RESEARCH LABORATORIES The VMI Research Laboratories was established in 1963 as a private non-profit Virginia Corporation to encourage and promote faculty research. It fosters educational objectives by supporting scientific investigation and contractual research. Since cadets assist faculty members, activities of the Research Laboratories help to teach research techniques. Policies of the Corporation are established and carried out by a 15-man Board of Directors. The Chairman of the Board is Colonel Victor J. Bernet, M.D. of Olney, Maryland and the Director of Research is Dr. Richard A. Rowe, Professor of Biology. During 2007-2008 twelve faculty members and several cadets were employed part-time on contracts totaling in excess of $2,610,197 and dealing with areas including:chemoresponses, modeling of glass forming processes, wastewater treatment, thin films, glass chemistry, nuclear waste immobilization and analysis of leadership traits. During 2007-2008, grants from FMC Corporation, Research Corporation, VDOT, Jeffress Trust, Emhart Glass Research and various industry sources were awarded to VMI faculty and administered by the VMIRL. Sponsored events include the annual Environment Virginia Symposium and the Marr School. Recently, VMIRL co-sponsored the establishment of the Center for Glass Chemistry within the VMI Chemistry Department and the Journal of Undergraduate Research. The VMIRL administers the Stanley Wetmore Fund which provides monetary support for cadet research. The VMIRL sponsors two awards which are presented at the Institute’s annual convocation. The Matthew Fontaine Maury and Wilbur S. Hinman awards each reward outstanding achievement in the area of faculty and cadet research efforts at the Institute. 12-13 Catalogue MAY 2011 GRADUATES BY CURRICULUM Number Distinguished Graduates Graduates Biology................................................. 16.............................. 5 Chemistry............................................... 9.............................. 6 Civil Engineering................................... 32............................ 14 Computer Science.................................. 4.............................. 2 Economics-Business............................ 36............................ 10 Electrical Engineering........................... 11.............................. 6 English.................................................... 7.............................. 2 History.................................................. 40............................ 11 International Studies............................ 47............................ 18 Mathematics/Applied Mathematics....... 3.............................. 1 Mechanical Engineering....................... 30.............................. 8 Modern Languages & Cultures............. 11.............................. 5 Physics................................................... 1.............................. 0 Psychology........................................... 32.............................. 5 Total.................................................... 279............................ 90 RECAPITULATION OF GRADUATES Total to September 15, 2010.................................. 20,592 December, 2010........................................................... 24 January, 2011................................................................. 1 May, 2011................................................................... 279 September, 2011.......................................................... 30 December, 2011........................................................... 29 January, 2012................................................................. 1 May, 2012................................................................... 245 Graduated December 2010 - May 2012................. 609 Total to May 16, 2011................................................ 21,201 124
