And They’re Off
Those involved with the organization say TECH has enjoyed an impressive debut.
“I am very encouraged by the educational value, energy and sense of community the students, alumni, faculty and staff have generated by working together to make TECH a reality,” Venkatesh “Venky” Narayanmurti, dean of the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences, wrote in an e-mail.
Bottino says about 275 students have participated in TECH this year.
The idea for TECH was developed by David Alpert ’99-’00. During the 1999-2000 academic year, he pitched the concept to members of the administration, including Narayanmurti, who took to the idea and became one of its greatest champions.
And thus the road to TECH was created. The organization was officially founded in May, and began operations in September of this academic year.
All those involved with the group agree that as the organization grows, it will have to develop a clearer structure.
