Dr. Cain Obituary

Dr. Allen BishopDr. Allen Bishop, Professor of Chemistry and Director of Academic Computing, passed away on the morning of June 22, 2003. Bishop taught at Millsaps for 35 years. His energy in the classroom was matched only by his dedication to providing the best computing technology to our faculty and students.

He served Millsaps well as Chair and Acting Chair of Computer Studies, Physics, and Biology and as Acting Associate Dean of the Sciences. He also co-founded our Computer Science program.

Millsaps honored Bishop in 1998 with the Distinguished Professor Award, the highest award the College can bestow on its faculty. In nominating him, his colleagues said: “He solves problems and brokers agreements with wit, charm, and wisdom.”

In 1999, he was named Outstanding Educator of the Year by The United Methodist Higher Education Foundation. He was selected from candidates at 123 Methodist institutions for his extraordinary impact upon his college, church, and community.

Dr. Allen Bishop showed us how much a person can achieve, and how many lives a person can affect, with a lifetime of commitment.
