Description

Dr. Netterville taught at Lipscomb for 27 years. He taught high school science, math, and Bible from 1951-1959 except for one year he served as a missionary and teacher in Alaska. He became an instructor in college chemistry in 1959 and advanced to chair the department. A thorough and inspiring teacher, he was also a forward-looking administrator who elevated the importance of science instruction, helped establish Lipscomb’s reputation for excellence in premedical preparation, and led the chemistry department to national recognition through accreditation by the American Chemical Society.
