Lenly Weathers, associate professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering in the College of Engineering, has been named the faculty leader for the Tech Tomorrow Education for Life goal.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the team leader for Education for Life, I am eager to reach out to students, faculty, staff and administrators to promote the priorities under this facet of Tech Tomorrow by improving current practices or creating new ones,\u201d Weathers said. \u201cThis will mean continuing to evolve a Tech-unique general education curriculum to provide the foundation for technologically adept, analytically capable, career-ready graduates. Expanding the diversity of our student population is also a priority of Education for Life, as is the related goal of developing each student\u2019s global awareness in our increasingly interconnected, global society.\u201d<\/p>\n
The previous leader for this goal was Ed Lisic, professor of chemistry in the College of Arts & Sciences.<\/p>\n
