Schneller Chemistry Legacy Lecture Series
Overview
In May, 2014, Stew and Aina Schneller established the Schneller Chemistry Legacy Lectureship
endowment in the College of Arts and Sciences on the Tampa campus of the University.
The Schneller Chemistry Legacy Lectureship will host one lecture per year within the
Chemistry Department. The Schneller Legacy Lecturer is to be chosen by the chemistry
department chair in consultation with appropriate faculty members forming a committee.
Each Schneller Chemistry Legacy Lecturer will receive a plaque recognizing his/her
