In December 1999, Professor Ed Rhodes was awarded the General Education Teaching Award from the USC College of Letters, Arts and Sciences. Professor Rhodes received the award for his contributions to the General Education Program during the '98 - '99 academic year. He was chosen on the basis of statistics and student comments on evaluation forms, course syllabi and evidence of rigorous grading. One student from his Astronomy 100 course commented, "Professor Rhodes was excellent in every way. He explained concepts clearly and made me think about life and creation much more openly. This was an extremely beneficial course to my education. Thank you."
The Department of Physics and Astronomy is proud to have Professor Rhodes on our faculty and joins with the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences in congratulating him on his outstanding instructional skills, enthusiasm and ability to generate true inquisitiveness among his students.
