Memorial Fund

Support the John Kolena Endowed Faculty Chair

There are many teachers who inspire learning -- and there are some who change lives. Not only was John Kolena both, but he also inspired generations of NCSSM students by making physics cool.  As you have already heard, John Kolena passed away this past winter.

We hope you feel inspired by John and the tribute other alumni have made by establishing the John Kolena Endowed Chair in Physics at NCSSM and that you will please consider adding your own support to the John Kolena Endowed Faculty Chair.

This funding will allow us to add additional faculty in physics which will expand our physics offerings at NCSSM, where physics is still a very popular subject with our students.
