About Dale Cooper
No full textDale J. Cooper (b. 1941) is chaplain emeritus of Calvin College (now University), a position he held for thirty years, starting in 1979. The chaplaincy, he said, offered the best of three worlds—the opportunity to teach, to preach, and to be a pastor to 4,000 students. Cooper—known to decades of students as “Coop”—initiated the LOFT worship service on campus in 1996.
In 2008, after retiring from his role as chaplain and religion professor, Cooper joined the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship as a resource development specialist for liturgical spirituality. His contributions included a four-year run as author of Coop’s Column, featuring spiritual reflections on Christian worship. Cooper also became an adjunct faculty member in Calvin’s department of Congregational and Ministry Studies, where he has served as a pastoral mentor in the Jubilee Fellows program. With the advent of the Calvin Prison Initiative in 2015, Cooper also began teaching at the Richard A. Handlon Correctional Facility.
Cooper’s writings over the years have included a study guide to the Psalms, meditations for the Calvin journal Dialogue, and a twelve-part series highlighting John Calvin’s teachings for The Banner. Cooper was ordained in the Christian Reformed Church of North America in 1972. Before joining the Calvin College faculty in 1976, he worked for five years at Calvin Christian High School and Unity Christian High School.
In recognition of his extensive impact on campus and beyond, Cooper was named the recipient of Calvin’s Faith and Learning Award in 2017. He also received the Calvin Theological Seminary Distinguished Alumni Award in 2015.
Cooper earned a bachelor’s degree from Calvin College (1964), an MDiv degree from Calvin Theological Seminary (1968), and a doctorandus degree from the Free University of Amsterdam (1971). His family has established the Dale and Marcia Cooper Family Scholarship to benefit international students at Calvin. His stated life\u27s aim: To live faithfully as Jesus\u27 disciple for the world to see.https://digitalcommons.calvin.edu/cicw-staff-work/1003/thumbnail.jp

Microsatellite markers for the Common ringtail possum (Pseudocheirus peregrinus) and their amplification in other Pseudocheirids
No full text© 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.Eleven microsatellite markers were developed for the Common ringtail possum, an arboreal marsupial abundant in fragmented forests of south-eastern Australia. Loci were highly polymorphic (4-32 alleles per locus) and heterozygosity ranged from 0.66 to 1. Two loci deviated significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium proportions, possibly because of low-frequency null alleles. These markers will be informative for examining patterns of gene flow, relatedness and mating systems within fragmented populations of the Common ringtail possum and have potential for use in other Pseudocheirids.Melanie L. Lancaster, Steven J. B. Cooper, Sue Carthew and Andrea Taylo
