the c e r e m o n y

Congratulations to all of our honorees. We are

here this evening to express our respect and appreciation for a group

of outstanding individuals. As the newest award winners, you are

representatives of the best we have to offer in the College and serve

as role models for future generations of engineers.

Those honored tonight, as well as those who have been honored

at past ceremonies, are stellar examples of the achievements and

leadership inspired by Georgia Tech engineers. As leaders in your

field, you have contributed to a heightened awareness of engineering

and its role in society.

The potential for excellence can be found in each of us. How

lucky you all are to have realized your own. Each of you has risen

to prominence in your field, and while you come from different

times and places, I see a common thread, a purpose that transcends

any differences. You found the intrinsic value that lies in higher

education. You have made the most of your degree from Georgia

Tech, and we salute what you have achieved.

A hallmark of the College of Engineering has always been its

exceptional alumni and supporters. You have contributed in

countless ways to the field of engineering and to Georgia Tech. The

continued devotion of our alumni and friends, as evidenced here

tonight, is proof that the mission of Georgia Tech and the College

of Engineering is alive and thriving, and we applaud the successes of

our most valuable assets: you.

from t h e d e A n

WelCome to one of the College of engineering’s most important celebrations, as we recognize and honor the many

accomplishments of some of the Institute’s most distinguished

engineering alumni. I extend sincere congratulations to all those

being recognized and honored here tonight. Your professional

success, leadership prowess, and community involvement serve not

only as an inspiration for our younger alumni and current students,

but also as a vital aspect of Georgia Tech’s enduring reputation for

excellence and innovation.

High standards, hard work and entrepreneurial drive are hallmarks

of Georgia Tech graduates. Our honorees are at various stages in

their careers, but they all share these traits. All of them in their own

way have made their mark in their respective fields, be it academia,

government or industry, and tonight I am exceedingly proud to see

them receive awards.

As living examples of the Georgia Tech ethos, tonight’s honorees

have something else in common: an unmatched technological

education, along with the ability to think critically and address

complex challenges, and the determination to have a positive impact

on our world.

On behalf of the entire Georgia Tech community, I thank you for

all you have done and continue to do for your own organization,

the Institute, and our nation through your service and commitment

to excellence. I hope that you will thoroughly enjoy this exciting

evening as you celebrate the outstanding achievements of those

receiving a College of Engineering Alumni Award.

Special Thanks

The College of Engineering Alumni Awards were created in 1994 under the leadership of Dr. John A. White during his tenure as Dean. He stated, “…being students at Georgia Tech, you have had a significant impact on the world. Those who wonder why Georgia Tech’s College of Engineering enjoys an impeccable reputation need only look at your accomplishments.” Subsequently, he passed the torch to Dr. Jean-Lou Chameau, former Georgia Tech Provost and Engineering Dean, whose outstanding service to the College of Engineering led him to receive the 2006 Dean’s Appreciation Award from then-Dean Dr. Don P. Giddens, a Tech engineering alumnus. The alumni awards program is now under the leadership of current Dean Dr. Gary S. May, who received his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Georgia Tech. Each year, the College of Engineering recognizes, with an induction ceremony, select alumni who have contributed to the profession, advanced in their careers, and enhanced the lives of others both personally and professionally. These outstanding alumni are reviewed by committees within each of the eight schools within the College and formally submitted for selection.

“rA m B l i n’ Wr e c k”

I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer,A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer,Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear,

I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer.

Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I’d dress her in White and Gold,And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold.

But if I had a son, sir, I’ll tell you what he’d do.He would yell, “To hell with Georgia,” like his daddy used to do.

Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds,A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it around.I’d drink to all good fellows who come from far and near.

I’m a ramblin’, gamblin’, hell of an engineer!
