Lee N. Bolen, professor emeritus of physics and astronomy, is being honored through a scholarship endowment in his name. The longtime professor’s colleagues and friends established the fund to pay tribute to his contributions to the University of Mississippi and provide assistance to students. The Dr. Lee N. Bolen, Jr. Scholarship Endowment will fund awards for full-time undergraduate and graduate students in the Department of Physics and Astronomy as selected by the department chair. Bolen joined the UM faculty in 1967 as an assistant professor and became a full professor in 1970. He has been awarded both service and teaching awards.
