The annual Kauffman Award for outstanding service to the Center for Lifelong Learning was presented to Carl Fields at the annual Earl F. Kauffman Remembrance Day Luncheon, April 24, 2024.
Carl grew up in Newark, Delaware, and Detroit, Michigan. He graduated from

His academic accomplishments include physics and masters of physics degrees,

He worked at Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory, designing submarine reactors, Clinton Nuclear Power Station, and SRS, performing safety analysis until retirement in 2004.
Since retirement 20 years ago, he has been a volunteer mainstay of first, the Academy of Lifelong Learning, and then its successor organization, the Center for Lifelong Learning. Over the years, he has brought in a multitude of new classes, taught many classes himself, and served as Curriculum Chair and President along the way.
He remains very active and is a dedicated contributor to CLL's success.
