Jasbir Sidhu was an MSc student in experimental particle physics. He worked with Professor Penny Estabrooks at the fixed target experiment E691 at Fermilab near Chicago. In July 1987, towards the end of the second year of his degree, Jasbir died suddenly while at Fermilab. At the convocation of November 1987, Jasbir Singh Sidhu was awarded a posthumous MSc. This award was endowed shortly thereafter by students and members of the Physics Department in his memory.
