HANK CHAMBERLIN Hank Chamberlin retired July 1, 1980 after serving this institution for 35 years. When he came to UAM (then Arkansas A M) in 1945, there was no forestry pro- gram. Chamberlin immediately took hold and proceded to initiate and nurture Arkan- sas’ first forestry curriculum, which eventu- ally grew to be ranked among the top five in the nation in job placement. “‘Hank’’, as he is fondly referred to by his students, has taught every one of the 586 forestry graduates that UAM has produced during his 35 year era. He has certainly touched the life of each and every one of his students in some way. This fact was graphi- cally revealed on May 2, 1980 when ap- proximately 200 of Chamberlin’s former stu- dents assembled in Monticello to honor him and present him with a check for $3,500 as a token of their appreciation. Chamberlin’s presence here has altered this campus and his efforts will undoubtedly continue to show. He will, without a doubt, be forever remembered. ef Above: “Hank”’ as his students see him; teaching Dendrology (the identification of trees).
