Former COE Dean, ME-EM Professor Emeritus Edward Lumsdaine Remembered

We are saddened to announce the passing of Edward Lumsdaine, a professor emeritus of the Department of Mechanical Engineering-Engineering Mechanics (ME-EM) and former dean of the College of Engineering (COE) at Michigan Tech. He passed Oct. 17, surrounded by his family at the age of 85.

Read Lumsdaine's obituary and leave a memory if you wish.

Lumsdaine started at Michigan Tech as the COE dean in 1993. In 1996, he accepted a position as the director of the Innovation Center at Michigan State University, leading a coalition of several Michigan universities (including Michigan Tech) and colleges participating in the Ford C3P education and training program. In 1997, he returned to Michigan Tech as a ME-EM professor.

In 2003, Lumsdaine developed with Paul Nelson (School of Business and Economics) a three-course "technopreneurship" sequence as a concentration in a new interdisciplinary joint degree program, the operations management master's of science in engineering. Because of his experience and reputation in creative problem-solving, entrepreneurship and design, he jointly taught the Senior Design course to the General Motors certificate students via distance learning.

In 2010, Lumsdaine was selected as a distinguished visiting professor of engineering mechanics of the United States Air Force Academy through a program to bring a limited number of outstanding civilian educators to the academy to enrich its faculty.

After retiring in 2015, Lumsdaine continued to lecture and write on creative problem-solving and communication, based on the HBDI (Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument). In July 2016, he was the keynote speaker at the TRIZFest conference in Beijing, China.

Ed is remembered by his colleagues and students for his kind heart, his wry sense of humor and his superb attention to effective team building.

While at Michigan Tech, Lumsdaine received the 1994 Chester F. Carlson Award for innovation in engineering education from ASEE/Xerox, and the 1994 Merl K. Miller Award from ASEE-CoEd for a paper he co-authored. He was a 1996 Centennial Distinguished Alumni of the New Mexico State University College of Engineering (his alma mater). He was a member and fellow of ASME, a member of the Royal Society of Arts and a member of ASEE. He published over 100 journal and conference papers, and was the author of several books on his creative problem-solving method.

In 2021, along with his wife, Monika Lumsdaine, he co-authored a candid and heartwarming autobiography, "Chopsticks & Chocolate: A Love Story Bridging Time and Cultures." In 2016, they also wrote about his amazing life story before coming to the United States from Japan in "Rotten Gambler Two Becomes a True American: A Boy's Journey of Surviving the Odds."

MTU Alum and Kimberly-Clark Recruiter Doug Stage Passes Away

The Corporate & Foundation Relations team is sad to announce the passing of Douglas W. Stage.

Stage earned his degree in chemical engineering from Michigan Tech in 1993. He joined Kimberly-Clark and was extremely active on the campus recruiting team. Whenever Career Services needed a volunteer to help students with resume preparation or just give them someone to talk to, Stage was happy to assist. He was passionate about helping students with disabilities, both on campus and within Kimberly-Clark, where he was a key member of the Capabilities First employee resources group. 

Read Stage's obituary.

A GoFundMe fundraiser has been established for offsetting funeral expenses.

Women's Basketball Adds Two Road Wins

Michigan Tech women's basketball defeated Saginaw Valley State and Wayne State over the weekend, and are 3-1 on their current five-game road trip.

The Huskies used a strong start to defeat the Cardinals 69-53 Thursday (Jan. 5) at James E. O'Neill Jr. Arena. Ellie Mackay led the scoring for Tech with 21 points.

"After some mistakes early, we were able to stay poised, break the press, keep our eyes up the floor and get good looks in the half court," said head coach Sam Clayton. "Ellie had a big game for us, especially in the first half, but several players stepped up and made big plays. Kate (Meister) and Bella (Lenz) made some strong attacks at the rim. I felt we had too many turnovers — but at the same time, it's hard to win on the road in the GLIAC, so I was happy with our effort."

Saturday (Jan. 7), the Huskies won 86-72 over the Warriors at Wayne State Fieldhouse. Five players reached double figures in the game, which was Tech's fifth-straight conference victory.

Isabella Lenz paced the offense with 18 points, going 8-for-8 from the free throw line and adding six assists, four rebounds, three steals and two blocks. Mackay contributed 13 points and Sloane Zenner finished with 11. Sara Dax was efficient in the lane with 10 points (5-for-9) and Soraya Timms pitched in 10 points in 23 minutes off the bench.

"I was very happy with our 20-to-seven assist-to-turnover ratio this afternoon," said Clayton. "We had a lot of players make positive contributions and we continue to make steps in the right direction. It's great to see Bella have another great game in all facets. She really deserves a lot of credit for what she brings to our team in terms of leadership on and off the court."

Men's Basketball Struggles on the Road

Michigan Tech men's basketball struggled against Saginaw Valley State and Wayne State over the weekend, dropping to 3-11, 1-5 GLIAC as they continue the search for their first road win.

MTU battled back in the second half, but succumbed 69-58 to the Cardinals on Thursday (Jan. 5) at James E. O'Neill Jr. Arena. Back in conference play in their first action since Dec. 19, the Huskies committed 24 turnovers in the game. Adam Hobson scored 12 points and Dan Gherezgher put up 10 points in the loss.

"I thought we played hard and fought the whole game," said head coach Josh Buettner. "You just can't win on the road with that many turnovers in this league. Credit to Saginaw for speeding us up with the full-court press early. We didn't execute our offense especially well. Some of it comes down to experience, but the bottom line is we have to take care of the basketball. It's been a point of emphasis in practice for over a month, but we clearly still have work to do. We will give ourselves a chance to win when we make better decisions and eliminate those losing plays."

Against the Warriors on Saturday (Jan. 7), Nate Abel gave the Huskies the lead with four seconds left in regulation, but the Warriors forced overtime. Tech fell behind in extra time, losing 72-65 at Wayne State Fieldhouse.

Marcus Tomashek paced the Huskies with 17 points (7-for-15). Gherezgher (14 points) and Abel (11 points) also made it to double figures.

"This one hurts. We played well enough to win and I am proud of the effort and urgency we played with," commented Buettner. "The responsibility falls on my shoulders to make sure our young team is better prepared in late-game situations."

Nordic Skiers Crack Top 20, Top 10 in Final Days of Nationals

The Michigan Tech Nordic Ski team put in phenomenal team efforts on the third and fourth days of the 2023 U.S. Cross Country Ski Nationals presented by Hampton Inn & Suites at the Tech Trails.

Skylar Patten and Anabel Needham turned out top 20 performances in the 20K classic mass start on Friday (Jan. 6).

Patten placed 11th in the men's race, while Needham placed 20th in the women's race. The Huskies also had a notable finisher in the 10K junior race: Wes Campbell placed eighth overall in a time of 28:12.4. 

"Wes getting involved in a crash one kilometer into the race and moving up from 30th to finish eighth is a commendable performance," head coach Tom Monahan Smith said.

For the freestyle sprint races on Saturday (Jan. 7), Adam Witkowski placed eighth overall in the men's race, and Cat Stow made the national podium with a bronze finish in the junior race. Needham was once again in the top 20, qualifying in ninth prior to finishing 16th overall in the women's freestyle sprint. 

"What a phenomenal last day of racing for the U.S. Cross Country Ski National Championships," Tom Monahan Smith and assistant coach Kristen Monahan Smith said. "This was our strongest day for the team overall, and to have our best day at the end of this huge week of racing shows just how incredible our student-athletes are."

Saturday's racing concluded the national championships.

"Thank you to everyone for a truly amazing week of racing! Our race organizers and all the volunteers provided the absolute best championship event, and for that, all the athletes and coaches are so incredibly grateful and thankful," Tom and Kristen added. "It is an honor and a pleasure to be a part of such an incredible ski community!"

Hockey Wins Desert Hockey Classic

No. 16 Michigan Tech hockey won the 2023 Desert Hockey Classic at Mullett Arena in Tempe, Arizona, defeating Arizona State and No. 6 Boston University.

The Huskies advanced to the championship game with a 4-2 win over the Sun Devils, the tournament hosts, on Friday (Jan. 6).

"The guys found a way to win against a good team in their rink," Tech coach Joe Shawhan said. "I thought our defensive unit played really well, and Blake (Pietila) saved our bacon on a lot of instances. We're going to have to be a lot better tomorrow if we want to have a chance against a really good BU team."

The Huskies became the Desert Hockey Classic champs with a 3-2 victory over the Terriers on Saturday (Jan. 7). MTU jumped out to a 3-0 first-period lead and held on for their third regular-season tournament championship under Shawhan.

"It was goaltending, goaltending, goaltending," said Shawhan. "Blake gave us a chance. We scored enough in the first and held on. I couldn't be prouder of this group. They keep finding a way."

Pietila was named tournament MVP after stopping 31 shots from Boston in the title game and 24 in the semifinal win over Arizona State.
