Gary Bold

Gary E.J. Bold (born 1938, died 3 July 2018[1]) was a New Zealand physicist, as of 2009 a lecturer and Honorary Associate Professor in physics at the University of Auckland.[2] Bold gained a PhD from the University of Auckland, and began lecturing at the university circa 1961. He won the Prime Minister's Supreme Award at the 2004 Tertiary Teaching Excellence Awards, which includes a prize of NZD$30,000. [2]

gollark: What? Why?
gollark: What mod is that, bewitchment?
gollark: ≠
gollark: It is a haskell-style not equals.
gollark: That could easily be done with anything which renders to HTML, or indeed basically anything which renders to anything which can display graphics.
