Biological Sciences

Dr. Rominger was a Professor of Botany at NAU from 1963 to 1990. He was the 1977 NAU Homecoming Dedicatee and an immensely popular botany professor and noted agrostologist. Their dedication to the welfare and success of their students left an indelible impact on all who knew both James and his wife, Redonda. Dr. Rominger passed away in 2015, and his wife Redonda passed on Christmas Day 2023 at the age of 91. Their legacy of student support lives on through this scholarship.
