Department of Physiology Thomas Adams Memorial Scholarship (for B.S. in Physiology students only)

Dr. Thomas Adams was a faculty member for 44 years and had a special affinity for teaching undergraduate students. He taught an estimated 11,000 students in his tenure as a professor. He also served as an academic advisor, advising students in the Department of Physiology, the College of Human Medicine, the Honors College, Lyman Briggs College and the American Medical Student Association.
