James and Anne Duderstadt celebrate the renaming of the Media
Union at a ceremony March 19. The James and Anne Duderstadt Center
honors the University's 11th president, whose association with
the University spans 35 years, and his wife, who promotes awareness
of the University's history and its artistic treasures. James Duderstadt
is University Professor of Science and Engineering and head of
the Millennium Project, a research center concerned with the impact
of various societal, economic and technological changes on the
research, teaching and service activities of universities. It is
housed in the building that now bears his name. (Photo
