LTOs Going and Coming (1Dec92)
(from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 32, 1 December 1992)

We are sad to say farewell to two of our telescope operators, Dave
Chamberlin and Jean Nowakowski. Chamberlin, who has been an LTO since
June 1986, has headed back to Utah where he will be working as a
laboratory coordinator in the chemistry department at the University of
Utah. Nowakowski, who began work at Kitt Peak in September 1989, has
moved downtown to do data reduction and programming for the GONG
Project. We wish them both all the best in their new endeavors.

There are two new faces on the mountain, Bridget Watts and Kurt Loken,
who you are sure to meet if you observe on the 2.1-m or 4-m telescopes.
Watts, a December 1991 graduate of the Washington University physics
program, worked for several years as a laboratory assistant in a NASA
project which evaluated materials exposed to space on the LDEF
satellite. Loken comes to us from just across Cherry Avenue at the
University of Arizona where he obtained a bachelor degree in physics
and astronomy in 1992. While at Steward Observatory, he was a student
researcher with George Rieke.
