Caterpillar Alumni and Foundation Help Develop New Studio Course Laboratory Classroom at Rose-Hulman
A $100,000 gift from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology alumni of Caterpillar Inc. and the Caterpillar Foundation is allowing students to expand their knowledge of electronic circuits, electrical engineering and computer engineering through a new studio-style laboratory classroom.

 

Rose-Hulman President Samuel F. Hulbert and John Winters, alumnus and retired general manager of Caterpillar, during the dedication of the new studio laboratory.

The educational workspace was dedicated in Moench Hall on Oct. 3 by Rose-Hulman President Samuel Hulbert and John Winters, a 1949 Rose-Hulman graduate who is a retired vice president and general manager of Caterpillar.

 

Several Rose-Hulman alumni have raised money which, together with a grant from the National Science Foundation, has enabled Rose-Hulman to construct and equip the new laboratory classroom. The studio classroom is being used by students from electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering. See story for more details.
