a former dean of engineering, honors students for their dedication to

M. Saurer, Novi, Mich.; Russell A. Morton, San
Antonio, Texas; Daniel C. Tucker, Palos Heights, Ill.;

An 1899 civil engineering graduate of Notre
Dame, Rev. Thomas A. Steiner, C.S.C., was dean of the College of Engineering
from 1928 to 1938. He made a great impact on the course of the College
of Engineering, but he made an even greater impact on the lives of
his students. In 1948 former students of “Pops” Steiner established
the Steiner Prize in his memory.
