Recent Story about Local Engineering Schools

[TechAlum05]

I was at a conference in Shreveport a couple months ago. While I was there, I talked with a colleague about some of the recent news and ongoing stuff about Louisiana Tech University.

He told me about an engineering company (I don't remember the name of the company) that he works with a lot on various projects. According to my colleague, the engineering company has been disappointed likely with the recent engineering graduates from LSU. He also said that when the engineering company looks to hire new employees for their company, engineering graduates from Louisiana Tech, Mississippi State, and Texas A&M go straight to the front of the line.

I felt proud to be a Tech graduate and that Tech was associated with other engineering schools like A&M and Mississippi State instead of LSU.

Tech grads always had a leg up at Dow since Dr. Chew's son did the hiring.
