bst August, has been named
lead of that department.
Dr. H. O. Kunkel, dean of the
College of Agriculture, said the
jew department head has served

A&M staff for more than 18
years and as a professor for the
past 10 years.
“Dr. Prescott has demonstrat
ed exceptional capability and
dedication to the development of
quality programs in biochemistry
and biophysics and in the han
dling of department matters,”
the dean pointed out.
Kunkel said the biochemist is
widely noted for his research in
the chemistry and metabolism of
amino acids and proteins. His
“stature and prestige as a scien

Prescott was born in San

He received a BS degree in chem
istry in 1941 from Southwest
Texas State College, the MS de
gree in biochemistry and nutri
tion in 1949 at Texas A&M, and
his doctorate in biochemistry in
1952 at the University of Wis
