University of Houston-Clear Lake | UHCL provost recognized for his collaborations with aerospace

University of Houston-Clear Lake Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Carl A. Stockton (center) was recognized by NASA Johnson Space Center for his involvement in several collaborative projects with NASA during his tenure at UH-Clear Lake. NASA Johnson Space Center Director of University Research, Collaboration and Partnership Office Kamlesh Lulla (front, right) presented Stockton with a U.S. flag previously taken into space and a special NASA coin in appreciation for his work.

Stockton, who joined UHCL in 2007, has worked tirelessly since then to build new partnerships and strengthen those already created by the university with NASA Johnson Space Center, numerous space industry contractors and other businesses. He was instrumental in the efforts to develop a Space Act Agreement with NASA Johnson Space Center, which allows for the university’s Alfred R. Neumann Library Archives to house the JSC History Collection. During the spring semester, Stockton announced that he would be leaving the university at the end of June to become chancellor of Auburn University at Montgomery.
