Emeriti
James D.Boykin was the college's first biology professor. Tragically, Jim passed away in 1985 at the age of 59. Later that year the L Building, which housed the Biology Department, was renamed the James D. Boykin Laboratory Center.
Jim always had a houseful of students, ranging from the more than 25 Micronesian students he sponsored and housed, to students who popped in for dinner and an impromptu teaching session. On his untimely passing, faculty and students honored him at that year's commencement ceremony, with the planting of cedar trees just outside the laboratory building, a memorial photo collage, and a scholarship in his name.
Greg Nishiyama joined the Biology Department in 1999 and he brought with him a wealth of knowledge and experience. A noted scholar in the field of Chemical Ecology with an impressive list of scholarly studies and published scholarly works to his name.Greg served as Faculty advisor to the Biology club, Lead Faculty for Environmental Biology, General Biology, Marine Biology, & Genetics and spearheaded the development of the Biology Department at the new Canyon Country Campus. Greg retired at the end of the Sping 2011 Semester.
