Professional Activities:
Dr. Feldman retired in 1993 and is one of the grand old men of IU Northwest. He started teaching at the university in Gary well before there was an IU Northwest. The school was called IU in Gary and classes were held in rented space in a Methodist church. He was one of only 11 faculty during that first year. As the campus became established and grew, Dr. Feldman served the campus in many administrative roles including: Psychology Department Chair, Director of Counseling and Records, Chairman (Dean) of the Division of Arts and Sciences, Dean for Administration, and Acting Chancellor. Dr. Feldman is also known for his teaching, winning the IU Northwest Teaching Excellence Award in 1980 and the Student Council Silver Bowl Outstanding Faculty Member Award in 1965. Dr. Feldman was also quite involved in community service. He was awarded the W. George Pinnell Award For Service to the University and Community in 1992 and the I.U. Dons Distinguished Citizen Award in 1971. Dr. Feldman can still be seen around the campus, continuing his contributions to the university and the community.
