Two more awards now can be
added to the long list of
achievements of Texas A&M’s
first female full professor.
Betty M. Unterberger, a his
tory professor who received her
doctoral degree from Duke
University, has gained national
and international recognition
for her educational and histori
cal contributions since her arri
val at Texas A&M in 1968.
She recently was named to
Who’s Who in America, and to
Notable Women of Texas for
1983.
The selection process for
Who’s Who in America is based
on authoritative and compre
hensive biographical data on
men and women whose position
and contributions to society
have made them subject of na
tional attention.
The Notable Women of
Texas award was given to Un
terberger based on her commu
nity contributions, career, busi
ness and social position.
Unterberger was the first fe
male full professor teaching at
Texas A&M.

Dr. Betty Unterberger
“When I would walk into the
classroom on the first day of
class students used to think I
was the secretary,” Unterberger
said.
During her 16 years here she
has taught Russian . history,
Asian civilization, American
foreign relations, international
relations and beginner survey
courses.
“I found that lecture-teach
ing was not helping the student
learn as much as they could. So
I developed the polylogue
method,” she said.
The polylogue form of teach
ing requires the student to
orally participate in discussions
relating to assigned reading or
from topics brought up by the
professor.
“I consider myself as a cat
alyst in the classroom,” she said.
Loretta Besa, a freshman
computer science major from
Eagle Pass, said Unterberger’s
classes are interesting.
“She incorporates open dis
cussion during class, and every
one feels free to express their
own opinion,” she said. “Dr.
Unterberger relates problems
in history with everyday prob
lems today. It makes it a lot eas
ier to understand.”
Unterberger said she tries to
make the student think in her
classes. “History is more than
memorizing dates and battles,”
she said.
Melisa Welborn, a junior Ag
ricultural Education major
from Shiner, said Unterberger’s
classes are challenging.
“If I had taken a class like this
when I was a freshman, I know
I would have been more pre
pared for other classes,” she
said.
Unterberger said she plans
her classes carefully. “I want to
inspire my students to develop
their own views and decisions.”
Craig Thornes, a freshman
from Irving, said that a lot of
preparation must be done for
her class. “She acts as a chair
man and directs our class dis
cussions about the assigned
readings,” he said.
tant issues and personalities in
history.
“You know, history is peren
nial — the questians are always
the same. Therefore, the more .
. . a student is brought into un
derstanding history, the more
wisdom is acquired.”
Her unique method of teach
ing has made her well-known.
The Ford Foundation has sent
her to many universities and
colleges across the nation to dis
cuss and teach her polylogue
method.
Outside the classroom, Un
terberger enjoys reading po
etry, philosophy, and writing
historical books and papers.
She currently is revising a
1,300-page manuscript to be
published this year entitled
“The United States, Austria-
Hungary and the Rise of
Czechoslovakia, 1914-1920: A
Study of International Politics.”
Unterberger said her teach
ing philosophy is to introduce
historical information to the
students by incorporating a
thoughtful contrast of ideas and
views in class discussions.
“I try to teach what a book
can’t,” she said. “I want my stu
dents to reflect on the impor-
In June, Unterberger and
three other historians will travel
to Russia to present scholarly
papers on an aspect of twen
tieth century diplomacy in So-
viet-American Relations at the
Fifth Colloquium of the Ameri
can Historical Association and
the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sci
ence in Kiev. The delegation,
headed by George Kennan, an
ambassador and authority on
Soviet affairs, will be the first
American group of historians
invited to Russia in the 20th
century.

United Press International
BERKELEY, Calif. — Scientists
say an as yet undiscovered
“deathstar” tliat showered the
earth with comets 28 million
years ago probably rid the
planet of dinosaurs and other
prehistoric forms of life. It will
happen again, they said, but not
for another 15 million years.
In a report to the Lawrence
Berkeley Laboratory, the re
searchers from the University
of California at Berkeley said
they used evidence from fossils,
rare metals and ancient impact
craters dotting the earth to ex
plain why certain species of life
have become extinct at regular
intervals over the past hun
dreds of millions of years.
The scientists describe the
star as a “dwarf,” or smaller
star, which orbits in space as a
companion to the sun and takes
26 million years to complete
one orbit. They conceded they
