Sad News for Entomology

Professor Emeritus R. Keith Chapman passed away peacefully on Tuesday, December 12, 2006, at age 90.

Chip Chapman’s distinguished career in Entomology at the University of Wisconsin spanned 42 years prior to his retirement in 1987. His pioneering research in leafhopper migration, insect transmission of plant pathogens, and ecologically-based pest management continues to influence agricultural decision making throughout the world.

Chip guided a remarkable 75 students to Graduate degrees in Entomology while at the U of Wisconsin and has influenced many others.

Together with his wife, Betty, Chip established the R. K. and Betty Chapman Distinguished Graduate Fellowship in Entomology which continues to enrich the strong legacy of research in Vegetable Entomology which he forged in the Department.
