UB honors Praxair for social awareness 
For the second consecutive year, Praxair, Inc. has received the Rose
Award for corporate social awareness from the UB chapter of Delta
Sigma Pi, the international business fraternity.
	The award, conceived by the students of the Alpha Kappa
Chapter, recognizes Praxair for its three educational outreach
programs: the "Praxair Visiting Scientist Program," in which employees
visit Holmes Elementary School in the Town of Tonawanda and conduct
experiments to encourage science interest among the young; a Mentoring
Program that matches up an at-risk student with a Praxair employee who
meets with the student on an ongoing basis, and the popular Cryogenic
Demonstration, a "Mr. Wizard"-type performance that shows the effects
of ultra-cold temperatures, ranging to 320 degrees below zero, on
various materials.
	Frederick Winter, dean of the UB School of Management,
presented the award to Steve Glick, Praxair director of
administration, and Bill Therrien, vice president of engineering and
safety and environmental services.
