Greenberg, who earned a doctorate in English literature at Princeton in 1977, was a lecturer in the University's English department before joining the administrative ranks as assistant registrar in 1978. He earned several promotions, most recently to the position of deputy registrar in 1993.
Greenberg assumed leadership of the registrar's office on an interim basis last year, when Registrar C. Anthony Broh left to become director of research at the Consortium on Financing Higher Education.
He has implemented significant automated systems in the registrar's office, including one that allows students to view their academic records on the Web, and has been a leading team member in the campus-wide initiative to upgrade administrative information systems.
Robert H. Williams, senior research scientist at
Princeton's Center for Energy and Environmental Studies, is
a co-winner of the 2000 Volvo Environment Prize.
Williams shares the prize with José Goldemberg of Brazil, Thomas Johansson of Sweden and Amulya Reddy of India. Working together since the early 1980s, the four scientists have developed an innovative policy-driven approach to technical analysis of world energy. They have formulated energy strategies that help solve major energy-linked problems of poverty, local and global environmental concerns, military conflict and nuclear weapons proliferation -- problems that would be exacerbated in a "business-as-usual" future based on today's energy technologies.
Their analyses also show that the developing countries can avoid retracing the polluting energy path of industrialized countries and "leap-frog" directly to cleaner, safer technologies.
Worth about $170,000, the prize is given annually to scientists who have made outstanding contributions to understanding or protecting the environment.
