Penn College's 2023-24 Impact Report — titled "Moving the Mission Forward" — is available online. The report gives a glimpse of the opportunities realized at Penn College in 2023-24, thanks to the efforts of many. "Pennsylvania College of Technology is an engine of economic development, crafting and adapting curriculum to meet workforce needs since 1914," says Penn College President Michael J. Reed in a video message. "The mission continues."
Working together to get the job done and lift up others: That seems to be a reoccurring theme as we reach the conclusion of “Give Thanks, Paw it Forward” week. The final “Makers” profile to be shared as part of this annual thankfulness celebration is that of James C. Fretz, a construction management student from Collegeville.
The fourth profile to be shared this week, during the “Give Thanks, Paw It Forward” celebration, is one of Penn College’s Corporate Tomorrow Makers – Weather Engineers, Inc., a 60-year-old company providing residential and commercial HVAC solutions in northeast Florida. Daniel E. Towers, a 1994 graduate of Penn College’s heating, ventilation & air conditioning technology major, is vice president of operations for the company. Towers enjoys recruiting Penn College students and alumni.
Penn College students aren’t the only ones expressing their appreciation during “Give Thanks, Paw It Forward” week. Alumni are also joining the effort. David W. Stanley, a 1982 radiologic technology graduate of Penn College’s predecessor institution, Williamsport Area Community College, gives thanks for his foundations (family and collegiate) through a radiography scholarship in memory of his “great parents,” William and Evelyn Stanley.
