Barbara Stay, a former professor in the Department of Zoology (now Biology), joined the department in 1967 and retired in 2008 after a productive career in research and teaching for over 40 years. The Department of Biology is currently accepting donations to establish a Barbara Stay Memorial Lectureship in honor of Dr. Stay. 

This annual seminar will bring world-renowned researchers to campus to interact with students and faculty and deliver a memorial lecture.
