Steve Lemos accepts his 20 year award from Dr. William Ferrante

The Technical Advisory Committee of New England Institute of Technology met on November 9th at the Sheraton Airport Hotel in Warwick. Over 150 members of the committee, representing each program of study at the college, were in attendance to assist department chairs with curriculum development. The members of the Technical Advisory Committee are charged with providing insight on the latest technological developments within their respective fields. Their insight is invaluable in keeping the degree programs as relevant and as up-to-date as possible.
      The evening was co-chaired by Dr. William Ferrante and Dr. Alice Savage. Both Dr. Ferrante and Dr. Savage serve the college as Associate Provosts. Dr. Ferrante thanked the members of the committee for their service. Dr. Savage reviewed the accomplishments of the previous year and the challenges that lay ahead. Dr. Ferrante also presented awards to members of the committee with 5 and 10 years of service.
