  • by Staff

Professor Warren Pickett was inducted last month into the Hall of Fame of the Wichita State University Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The honor is bestowed annually to at most one person each from Physical Sciences, Humanities, and Social Sciences, for career achievements. He was the second WSU Physics student (after a colleague of his at WSU, last year) to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Pickett received his BS degree (1969) in Physics and Math, then while waiting to learn if he would be drafted into the Vietnam war (he wasn't) his MS in Physics (1971), both from Wichita State University. His PhD was from Stony Brook University (1975).

At the ceremony Pickett was presented with a brief video with highlights from his career.
