Dr. Coale served as the General Chairman of the Aerospace Symposium for more than twenty years and deserves credit for its continued success. He played an active part in its leadership until his unfortunate passing in August 1997. Dr. Coale was a very special person with many significant technical accomplishments (he primarily worked on spacecraft structural dynamics) and a deep abiding interest in the development of young people. This was exemplified by his steadfast involvement in the youth activity programs at Ladera Community Church in California. The Mechanisms Education Association established this scholarship in memory of Dr. Coale to recognize outstanding young individuals who have the potential of making significant contributions to the fields of science, medicine and/or engineering in the not-too-distant future.
