Bill and Triana Silliman Fellowship

Fund #2078

Bill and Triana Silliman decided to make their 2007 gift to Campaign First, because they wished to support the Graduate program in Chemical Engineering, which was a very important part of their lives. Dr. William J. Silliman came to the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science after completing an undergraduate degree from Princeton University. "Bill" received his PhD in Chemical Engineering under the advisement of the late L.E. Scriven in 1979. After leaving the University Bill began working for Exxon Corporation and today serves as the Development Planning Manager for the Far East. Triana and Bill met in 1969 and have been married for 32 years. In 1978 Triana completed a general education degree at the University of Minnesota and later after staying home to rear the Silliman's four children, she obtained a Master of Education from the University of St. Thomas and currently teaches children with special needs.
