Every student Kettering University Professor of Chemistry Reg Bell encountered in his more than 50 years on Kettering faculty was among his “favorite students” for a very simple reason -- he believed that Kettering students and alumni are the best and most talented in the world. Bell, who passed away in July 2015, was a tireless advocate for Kettering students throughout his career, personally influencing the lives of thousands of students. “For those of us who pursue teaching as a career, we do so hoping that we will have impact in some positive way on the lives and careers of our students,” said Kettering University President Dr. Robert K. McMahan. “Reg achieved this for thousands of students, and so much more. He made an indelible impact on their lives. He did on mine as well.”
