*Wayward Award Finds Home 2 Years Later: MIT Professor Receives Belated
Recognition*

In 2016, *Professor Christoph Reinhart* was announced as the recipient of
IBPSA-USA's*Distinguished Achievement in Building Simulation award* during
the 2016 SimBuild conference. Unfortunately, Professor Reinhart was not
able to make it to Salt Lake City to receive the award in person. Now, over
two years later, his award plaque has made it to Cambridge. Investigations
continue into the the plaque's whereabouts during its two-year absence, but
all are happy it has found its way home.
