WestConn scholarship honors Dr. Mel Print E-mail
Written by JBaileyAdmin   
Tuesday, 25 September 2007

The Danbury News Times gave Dr. Mel and the scholarship in his name a nice write-up this past Sunday. Here's a bit of what Robert Miller wrote:

 

For 26 years, Goldstein was the head of the meteorology department at Western Connecticut State University in Danbury. But to say he was the head is an understatement. In fact, he created it.

"When I came to the school, it was still Western Connecticut State College," Goldstein said. "The department had a barometer and a thermometer."

Today, WestConn has its own weather center, initially built with funds Goldstein earned on the side as a television and radio forecaster, and is the only school in Connecticut to offer a bachelor's degree in meteorology.

The university has honored Goldstein in the past, giving him its highest award -- the school's President's Medal in 1997. But on Friday, he'll he honored in a different way, with the university creating a scholarship for meteorology students in his name.

Here's the full story.
