context_section_description: Calvin Buehler was publicly recognized on several occasions both for his research and his teaching. He was the first recipient of the Southern Chemist Award in 1950. The award was given for his accomplishments in the field of Chemistry Research and Education, and was presented by the American Chemical Society for outstanding work in the Southern region. In 1963, Buehler was named one of the first five professors recognized as Distinguished Service Professors at the University of Tennessee. After his retirement in 1965, the University of Tennessee named their newly constructed chemistry building Buehler Hall in honor of his contributions to the University. The building still serves as the home of the chemistry department and chemistry research facilities at the university. In addition, the Calvin Buehler Chemistry Endowment was named in his honor, and the university also offers a Calvin Buehler Chemistry Scholarship, awarded to undergraduate students planning a career in chemistry.
