As an associate professor at the college, Edward O. Keith, Ph.D., shared with students his lifelong passion for marine mammals and manatee preservation. His valuable biological research included almost a decade of field studies in Veracruz, Mexico, where his expeditions often included colleagues and students. His principal interests included conservation, ecology, evolution, and the physiology of marine mammals such as whales, dolphins, and manatees. Keith had been with NSU since 1986 and was an esteemed and valued member of the college’s faculty. He is dearly missed by all who knew him.

The Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences has established the Ed Keith Memorial Scholarship. Contributions will be accepted through the college’s Office of the Dean.
