Students, staff, faculty, and Michael Bartus on behalf of his parents Julian and Zelda V., attend the Bartus Scholarship Reception held in the Johnson Rooms of the Lurie Engineering Center on North Campus in Ann Arbor, MI on October 4, 2012.
Julius Bartus (BSE CE ’36) and his wife, Zelda V. Bartus (BA ’39, CERTT EDUC ’39) met as undergraduates at the University of Michigan, and one of their sons, David, received his degrees from the Chemical Engineering Department (BSEChE ’79, MSE 81, PhD ’87). Their oldest son, Michael (AB Psychology ’70, MPH Public Health ’75), has been actively involved in the healthcare field. He recalls that his parents’ lives “began quite humbly, but were forever changed by their studies and exposure to so many opportunities that the University had to offer. Their motivation in terms of instituting the scholarship program was to offer the same ‘start in life’ for succeeding generations of U-M civil/environmental and chemical engineering students with demonstrated financial needs.”
