<span style="line-height:150%;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Professor
Rubin Landau received his B.S. in Engineering Physics
from Cornell University in 1965, his M.S. in Physics in
1966 from the University of Illinois, and his Ph.D. in
Physics from the University of Illinois in 1970. His
research specialty is theoretical and computational
studies of the interactions of elementary particles with
bound systems. He held postdoc positions at the
Universities of Pittsburgh and British Columbia, and
from 1974-1985 was a regular visitor at Triumf and UBC.
He has also held visiting appointments at the University
of California, San Diego (the Supercomputer center and
the Institute for Nonlinear Science); the Nuclear Theory
Institute at the University of Washington; Adelaide
University; Melbourne University; IBM Research, Yorktown
Heights; the University of Surrey; the Hebrew University
of Jerusalem; the Weitzman Institute; and Lawrence
Berkeley Laboratory. He is a Fellow of the American
Physical Society (Division of Computational Physics), an
Oregon State University Distinguished Professor, and
since 2003 a Professor emeritus, teaching part time and
continuing computational developments.<br>

Wendy
Carter-Veale has a passion for helping people succeed.<span> </span>To say Dr.
Carter-Veale understands the obstacles to success is an
understatement. She adopted author Julia Cameron’ s (
The Artist’s Way) personal philosophy "Leap and the net
will appear," to encourage herself throughout her
educational career. Raised in a home challenged by
poverty, alcoholism, and abuse, along with four
siblings, the statistics said that Dr. Carter-Veale
would not graduate high school or attend college.
Ignoring those statistics, she attended Stanford
University after graduating from the academically
rigorous Boston Latin Academy. That was her escape and
her promise of a brighter future. She earned both a B.A.
and M.A. from Stanford in six years – even after
becoming a single parent.<span>
</span>Earning five degrees from Stanford, Carnegie
Mellon, and University of Wisconsin-Madison, she
persevered despite the costs and seemingly
insurmountable challenges.</span>

that include: Professors-in-Training (PROF-it),
Dissertation House, the Community Building Retreat, Fall
Harvest, Research Symposium, Reflections Health and
