Karioris Award
The Karioris Memorial Student Award was established to honor the memory of Mr. Frank G. Karioris, a member of the Marquette University physics faculty for forty five years. This award has several purposes:
- to keep the memory of Professor Karioris' friendship and collaboration alive among his students and coworkers,
- to recognize and encourage the values and qualities he lived by: faith in God, respect for the dignity of every colleague and student, interest in a broad range of human wisdom and experience, an intellectual drive to understand and demonstrate clearly the physical laws of nature, tenacity and hard work in achieving goals, delight in sharing his knowledge and understanding with others, love for teaching.
- to honor and assist outstanding and deserving students who have a love for physics and a motivation to succeed professionally in this field.
This award is made to a junior physics major who fulfills these criteria and has achieved academic distinction. The recipient's name is engraved on a plaque and a cash award is provided.
