SAFL students celebrated in year end award ceremony

A special awards ceremony on May 4th celebrated student accomplishments in the St. Anthony Falls Laboratory (SAFL) community. We are tremendously grateful to have such dedicated, talented students at SAFL, and it is a privilege to celebrate them with awards that honor not only them and their accomplishments, but the legacies of the people who have helped SAFL become what it is today!

We presented the 2020 - 2021 Alvin G. Andersen Award, the Heinz G. Stefan Fellowship, and the Nels Nelson Memorial Fellowship. We were honored to have several family members and colleagues of the award namesakes present to help us honor their legacy.
