In Memoriam

Bruce Arden, dean of the Hajim School of Engineering & Applied Sciences from 1986 to 1994, died in December. He also served as the William F. May Professor of Engineering in the Department of Electrical Engineering before retiring with emeritus status. Arden’s interest in electronics began while he was serving as a radar technician in the US Navy during World War II. In the early 1960s, he wrote An Introduction to Digital Computing, one of the first textbooks on the use of computers. His academic research included designing parallel computers with thousands of processors working together to increase computational power.

Thomas Ferbel, a professor of physics at Rochester from 1965 to 2008, died in March. Born in Poland just before the start of World War II, he made his way to the US at the age of 12, by way of a Russian gulag, then a displaced persons camp in Germany. After earning a PhD in experimental particle physics, he became an expert on quarks, eventually playing a role in one of the most important discoveries in the field of high-energy physics: confirming the existence of the elusive top quark, the heaviest of all observed subatomic particles.
