Dale Stille, an Instructional Resource Specialist in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, was recognized as a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) at the APS March meeting in Minneapolis.

The APS Fellowship Program recognizes members who have made exceptional contributions in physics research, important applications of physics, leadership in or service to physics, or significant contributions to physics education. Each year, no more than one half of one percent of the Society’s membership (excluding student members) is recognized by their peers for election to the status of Fellow. This year, 153 Fellows were selected and recognized for their contributions to science.

The APS Forum on Outreach and Engaging the Public nominated Stille for his "outstanding, innovative, and selfless contributions to outreach and engagement that promote the understanding and appreciation of physics education, physics, and astronomy among diverse audiences."

Stille presented "Considerations for a Successful and Long Running Outreach Program" at the APS "How FOEP Nicholson and Fellow Awardees Engage in Public Outreach" session.
