World-renowned mathematician
Edward S. Macias, Ph.D., executive vice chancellor, dean of Arts & Sciences and the Barbara and David Thomas Distinguished Professor in Arts & Sciences, applauds the unveiling of a portrait of Guido Weiss, Ph.D. (right), the Elinor Anheuser Professor of mathematics in Arts & Sciences, at a ceremony March 31 in Cupples II Hall. The portrait hangs in Cupples II outside the mathematics conference room. Weiss, a faculty member since 1961, is a world-renowned mathematician and teacher whose influence and impact has affected generations of students and mathematicians. One of the world's outstanding analysts, Weiss has served as mathematics department chair, on many committees and in the Faculty Council and Faculty Senate Council. The portrait is by local artist Gilbert (Chic) Early.
