Timothy L. Mounts

Timothy L. Mounts (died 1997) made significant contributions to the advancement of agriculture technology. His work has had considerable national and international impact on the food industry, especially the edible oilseed sector.

Mounts was Research Leader of the Food Quality and Safety Unit at the NCAUR Ag Lab (National Center for Agricultural Utilization Research). He was a staunch supporter of Bradley University, belonging to the alumni association and Bradley Chiefs club. Additionally, he was the president-elect of the Kiwanis Club of Peoria, Illinois and a member of the St. Patrick Society, Spalding Alumni Association, and many other civic organizations in the Peoria area.

Mounts was a member and an officer of many professional and honorary societies since 1969. He participated in numerous national and international scientific meetings, technical conferences, and workshops over the past 20 years. Government regulatory and action agencies routinely sought his opinion and advice on food and agribusiness. He received numerous national and international awards and honors including the 1985 La Medaille Chevreul from L'Association Francaise pour l'Etude des Corps Gras, the 1991 Outstanding Scientist of the Year for Agricultural Research Service and the 1997 A. Richard Baldwin Distinguished Service Award from the American Oil Chemists Society.

It is for his devotion to country in military and civilian service, his dedication to furtherance of education and his belief in civic duty that Mr. Mounts is honored with the T.L. Mounts Lectureship at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois.

Mounts was a veteran of the United States Air Force, and the Illinois Air National Guard from which he retired as brigadier general in 1990.
