In Memorium - Abraham Amsel
Posted: September 8, 2006
A memorial service for Abe Amsel, Ashbel Smith Professor Emeritus, was held on Friday, September 8, at 1:30 at the Weed-Corley-Fish Funeral Home on Lamar and 31st. Abe was a distinguished faculty member in the Psychology Department from 1969 until his retirement in 1999. He was elected into the National Academy of Sciences in 1992 for his extensive research on animal learning. By any measure, Abe helped develop the department into what it is now.
