Greetings from Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology (TSCT),It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I introduce this year’s annual report, Defining Moments. The initiatives and accomplishments described in this report are the result of a total team effort and with the support and encouragement of our Board of Trustees, Alumni and Foundation Boards, Thaddeus Stevens Home Board, The Governor and his administration, the General Assembly, as well as our private and public sector partners. Everything contained in this report can be directly tied to our mission and the vision of our founder, Thaddeus Stevens.

The College continually strives to increase its institutional effectiveness by measuring its performance through an extensive system of dashboards and assessments that focus resources on those areas needing improvement. The context of Defining Moments remains almost identical to last year’s report, A Well-Centered Future. That is the College’s limited capacity is the major impediment to increasing its contribution to the Commonwealth. Over 3,500 individuals applied for admission to the College, for one of 492 openings. More than 130 employers attended the annual Career Fair, literally standing in line in an attempt to employ one or more of the College’s 270 graduates. In addition, countless employers are requesting new programs to meet their present and anticipated workforce needs.

Clearly the number one institutional priority is to increase capacity and provide the unique educational opportunity provided by the College to more deserving citizens and concurrently supporting the critical technical workforce needs of Pennsylvania.

The bullet points below provide a brief description of some of the key highlights contained in this report.

•MasterPlan: The College’s 10 year Campus Facilities Master Plan was completed which complements its 10 year Academic Plan. The Plan illustrates the physical changes needed to allow the College to grow and increase and add the programs identified in the Academic Plan. The plans are based on the doubling of several existing high-demand programs and the addition of eight new programs over the next 10 years that would bring total enrollment to 2,000 students.

• BranchCampusRenovation: On October 17th, the College dedicated its newly renovated Branch Campus. The total investment in this project was over $16 million. The facility now has a new infrastructure and provides modern laboratory and classroom space for eight current programs, housing for approximately 250 students and capacity for expansion.

•MyFutureCareerWebsite: The College launched its new career awareness website, My Future Career at www.myfuturecareer.us. The purpose of the website is to fill the career exploration void that fails to expose students to technical career options. The website provides middle school and high school students with information about technical careers through videos of young adults who are working in various technical fields. The site also provides the opportunity for interaction with the individuals profiled in the videos and offers opportunities for corporate sponsorships.

• Athletics: Athletics at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology exists only to provide additional engagement that contributes to student graduation and learning experiences that

are taught most readily through sports. This year’s football team again won the Seaboard Conference Championship and head-coach, Joe Wysock, was selected Coach of the Year. TSCT had All-American wrestlers and the top college basketball scorer in the nation.

• ProgramsofStudy: This year the Electrical Technology program was doubled in size in response to industry demand. Other new Technical programs were developed and are enrolling students for the fall of 2014 including: Electro-Mechanical Automation; Foundry/Metal Casting; Welding; and Water and Environmental Technology. Also, with the planned opening of the Greiner Campus in the fall of 2016, the following programs will be expanded: Metal Fabrication & Welding; Machine Technology and Computer-Aided Manufacturing; and Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration.

• K–12Initiative: The central component of the College’s long range strategy to ensure financially disadvantaged students are academically qualified to attend Stevens, is the K–12 Initiative. This consists of three primary programs: Adopt-A-Kindergarten; Stevens Summer Experiences; and the Early Enrollment Program. Significant increases in public sector funding, especially through the Commonwealth’s EITC tax credit program, have allowed the College to significantly increase these opportunities to more schools and students.

• IncreasedVisibility: One of the College’s strategic goals was to increase its visibility. The success of this effort could be seen this year through the College’s increased presence on television, radio, social media, special events and print. A fifteen year effort to have highway signage located at the Walnut Street Exits of Route 30 culminated this year with two large Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology signs erected at both the east and west exits.

• Investments/Donations: Donations and investments by individuals, foundations, corporations, and state and federal government increased to record levels. The high points of the year were the largest private sector gift in the College’s history of $1 million by the Greiner family and the largest federal grant in the College’s history of $2.3 million by the U.S. Department of Labor.

As you can see this was a very successful year for the College. I believe when this year is placed into historical context it will be seen as a Defining Moment in the evolution of the College. As I stated at the beginning of this letter, the highlights contained in this report are the result of a total team effort and commitment to the College’s mission. On the following pages you will learn more about these highlights as well as about some of the people that represent Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology. Thank you for your part in this past successful year.

Best regards,

William E. Griscom, Ed.D.President

Message from the president

Page 3: Defining Moments

Although he died in 1868, 2012–13 could have been considered the year of Thaddeus Stevens. Interest in the mid-19th century political leader, abolitionist, philanthropist and civil rights advocate hit an all-time high when Tommy Lee Jones portrayed the grizzled leader in the 2012 award winning film Lincoln. Jones’ portrayal shed light on Stevens’ contributions to building civil rights legislation in the US Congress, in spite of the country being divided on the issues in the midst of the Civil War.

Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology, named after the man who contributed the funds to begin the College, also benefited from the success of the Lincoln film and the reshaping of the thoughts of the influence of Thaddeus Stevens. Prior to the release of the movie, Thaddeus Stevens College was featured in multiple articles, including a

full supplemental piece in the Lancaster Newspaper, which featured highlights of Stevens’ life. Fox43 did a story on the College and Stevens’ influence in creating the College and how his contributions while a politician in PA and in Washington, DC could still be seen in the mission of the College today. Professor Donald Rhoads, author of a Thaddeus Stevens play, spoke to the reporter about Stevens’ influence over the years.

In August, the Lancaster Barnstormers hosted Thaddeus Stevens Night at the Ballpark. The first 1,000 ticket holders through the gate received a one-

of-a-kind Thaddeus Stevens bobble head. In addition, there were Thaddeus Stevens and Lydia Hamilton Smith re-enactors, clips from Lincoln, and the College was prominently featured as one of the key sponsors of this event. The key focus of the evening was to educate guests about the importance of Lancaster’s native son. This event received national coverage due to the uniqueness of the promotion.

Over the course of the last 18 months, Thaddeus Stevens College has undergone planning for major expansion efforts. Multiple new location

options have been established, a Master Plan in many areas has been developed and the College has set a goal of 2,000 students by the year 2022. With all of this in mind, the College took great strides in 2013 toward these goals.

Branch CampusFor the past two years, the College has been renovating the building located at 1100 East Orange Street. Previously, the building housed several programs and some residence space, however after the 2010-11 academic year, the facility was closed for renovations. In August of 2013, the first students moved back in to the recently remodeled rooms and classes began in the building for the new academic year. Programs now housed at the Orange Street Campus include Business Administration, Graphic Communications and Printing Technology, Masonry Technology, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Aided Drafting Technology, Architectural Technology, and Construction Electrician. New chemistry and physics lab were opened and space was made available for the new Water and Environmental Technology Program, starting in 2014. In addition, a new classroom space for a technical exploration class was created. This class is designed to allow Pre-Major students an opportunity to explore their options before entering a program in the fall.

In October of 2013, Governor Tom Corbett paid a visit to the newly refurbished campus. He was on hand to re-dedicate the building and to tour the new facilities that were purchased and renovated primarily with state funding.

Master planningAlso over the course of the past two years, the College’s administration, staff and faculty have been developing a 10-year Master Facilities Plan for the College. In the course of developing this plan, a Master Academic Plan and Master Student Affairs plan were also developed. The 10-year Master Facilities Plan will address multiple issues, including expansion of the College’s current technical and classroom facilities, increased parking, housing needs and much more. The plan calls for the construction of a new technical building on campus, several new residence halls, an expanded dining hall, and development of a student walking corridor which would allow students to access buildings more easily without concern of automobile traffic. Rettew Associates presented a finalized proposed Master Facilities Plan to the College in the Fall of 2013, with many recommendations on how to move forward in the coming years.

Greiner CampusDuring the course of the master planning process, a unique opportunity for the College was presented. Only a few blocks from the main campus, the City of Lancaster owned three buildings and several acres of land which had at one time been a federal military reserve complex. At that time, the facility was used for maintenance and storage of the City’s fleet of vehicles. The College inquired about purchasing this property from the City of Lancaster. After some discussion, the City agreed and the College began the process of acquiring the property. As is the case with any project, funding was one of the early concerns. Frank Greiner, owner and operator of Greiner Industries helped to alleviate these concerns. Greiner donated $1 million for the acquisition of the Armory from the City. In addition, money received from the state and a matching $1 million capital campaign, put the College on its way to acquiring the property.

The plans for the facility include expanding all of the current buildings, as well as constructing a fourth building onsite. Two of the existing buildings will house the Machine Tool and Computer Aided Manufacturing, and Metals Fabrication/Welding programs. The building to be constructed will house a state-of-the-art Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning program. The fourth building will be used for additional classroom space, as well as a community learning facility.

Late in the Fall of 2013, the Steinman Foundations also donated $600,000 for the acquisition of this property. This put the College within striking distance of the overall funding for the acquisition of the Armory property.

Beyond lancasterOver the past few years, state legislators, business leaders and community organizers have urged Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology to consider opening branch campuses across the Commonwealth. Serving more students in need at additional locations by educating them in trades and technology is a desire the College does maintain. After looking at properties in both Philadelphia and outside of Pittsburgh, the College’s administration and board determined, while this was something they wished to pursue in the future, they did not want to take resources away from the Lancaster campus in order to maintain satellite campuses. The College will continue to weigh their options as it relates to expanding beyond Lancaster.

2012–13 was another banner year for Thaddeus Stevens College Athletics. The

year began with the Bulldog Football team winning their third consecutive Seaboard

Conference Championship, their first under head coach Joe Ganse. The team also lead the Seaboard Conference with players named to the All-Conference team in December 2012.

The Thaddeus Stevens Cross Country team saw many milestones in 2012. For the first time, the team had not one, but three women running for the team. In addition, Rich Hall won the Paul Cameron Invitational/EPAC Championship. This was the first year the event was named in honor of Paul Cameron, a former coach, administrator and Athletic Hall of Famer at the College.

TSCT Basketball competed for the first time in the NCJAA in 2012–13. The team won a home playoff game against Johnson College before falling on the road. The highlight of the basketball season came during the last game of the season when guard Kenneth

Randall scored his 1000th overall career point near the end of the game. Randall was also the top Division III player in the nation based on points per game.

TSCT Wrestling showed its dominance in 2012–13 by sending five wrestlers to Nationals. Adam Will, an All-American recipient in 2011, duplicated this achievement once again in 2013, making him the first TSCT wrestler in nearly a decade to achieve this accomplishment.

Perhaps the sport of the year, however, was Track and Field. Under head coach and TSCT Hall of Famer Warren Taylor, the track and field team sent several competitors to Nationals in May 2013. Joel Leicy, who had finished second in the javelin in 2012, took the gold in 2013 with a distance of 52.77m. Michael LoPresti took the silver also in the javelin with a distance of 52.67m. Jamel Fortson also took the silver in the discus with a distance of 43.19m. Each of these men also attained All-American status with their finishing place.

Kelsey Haldeman took 6th place overall in hammer with a distance of 32.63m and Connor Whitman took 5th overall in the Decathlon.

All student athletes were recognized at the annual Student Athletic Awards Banquet at the end of the spring semester. Each sport recognized players who were most improved, most valuable, etc. The annual Stauffer Award was given to Connor Whitman, a three-sport sophomore and National Track and Field Qualifier. The Bevilacqua Award, TSCT’s highest athletic honor, went to Kenneth Randall for his impressive two years on the Bulldog Basketball team.

Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology has proven throughout the years its recognition of the importance of investing in the youth in our community. In many

cases, we realize by reaching students as early as kindergarten, we can effectively change their outlooks and help keep them focused on a strong academic track throughout their education. Ultimately, if this in turn leads them to Thaddeus Stevens College, we will happily welcome them to the school. We also realize, however, that Thaddeus Stevens himself believed education was the great equalizer. Those with an education, also had the best opportunities in life.

Thaddeus Stevens College has invested a great deal in its K–12 initiative. While focused on the benefits of technical and trade based careers, the programs also educate students on the importance of career skills, marketing and much more.

Each year for the past three years, Thaddeus Stevens has hosted its Adopt-A-Kindergarten program with Lafayette Elementary School in Lancaster. All three kindergarten classes have classroom presentations by Stevens instructors, visit the campus for a tour and receive a diploma while walking across the stage at their graduation while wearing caps and gowns.

Various camps are held on campus each summer to emphasize the importance of the trades and technologies and to open students’ minds to a variety of options. The Graphics Communications program at Stevens leads the Digital Imaging Camp, now in its third year of existence. It teaches students various aspects of digital design and layout. TechGyrls, a collaborative camp between the Lancaster YWCA and Stevens, educates middle school girls on the options available through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) based education and careers. Finally, the Migrant Education Camp, in collaboration with other organizations and colleges in the area, presents opportunities to students from Hispanic backgrounds.

Each of these opportunities continues to be made possible by the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC). These are tax credits to eligible businesses contributing to a Scholarship Organization, an Educational Improvement Organization, and/or a Pre-Kindergarten Scholarship Organization.

Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology is always looking for additional opportunities to help educate our future about their options as they move through their education. We continue to focus on providing education to students of all ages to ensure they have an equal shot at success in the future.

Bachman began growing his beard in November of 2012, letting it grow, without any grooming, until May 2013. The Battle for the Beard was organized to allow the specific programs at the College to raise money with the top fundraisers being able to design how Mr. Bachman’s beard would be styled for Graduation. The Metals Fabrication and Welding Program easily surpassed the other programs on campus to win the competition. In the end, over $1200 was raised for the American Cancer Society and nearly 100 faculty, staff and students joined together to watch Mr. Bachman have his beard shaved and dyed just in time for the 2013 Commencement.

•Mr.HeribertoArjona(picturedright)wasthe2013recipientoftheExcellenceinTeachingAward. This award is given annually to a faculty member selected by their colleagues and students at the College. Mr. Arjona is the Business Management/Economics instructor for the College.

Annual Report | 9

Abby Cook is a 2013 graduate of thaddeus Stevens College of technology from the Graphic Communications and printing technology program. Following graduation, Abby has worked as a freelance graphic designer and is currently employed at Designing Ducks in King of prussia, pA. this is also where Abby completed her internship the summer prior to her graduation.

When speaking about the College. Abby reminisces about the great experiences she had at Stevens. “I miss all the faculty/staff and students. I also miss all the knowledge I gained everyday, but what I learned has helped me throughout this past year with applying for jobs, interviews, freelance work etc. ,” commented Abby. “I know I will always go back for a visit probably more than once a year! I am looking forward to using my education and skills Mr. Adams and Mr. Brady (the Graphics instructors), and Mr. tate and everyone else at Stevens gave me at my new job!”

While at Stevens, Abby worked for Allen tate, the Director of Development for the College and Dr. Bob Cooper, the Director of Residence life. Abby worked on various projects including specialty publications for the Development office and the monthly Residence life Journal, a publication distributed by the office of Residence life. Abby was also involved in phi theta Kappa as a member and the president; participated in the photography Club; was the editor of the yearbook; served on the Residence Hall Council as the vice president; was a member of the Women in trades and technology (WItt); and attended the Student leadership Summit.

“I selected Stevens because it has a high job placement rate. It is also a hands on college, which I really enjoyed,” commented Abby. “I now tell anyone who asks me about Stevens that it is a great school, check it out and I highly recommend it! Stevens is also committed to structuring and maintaining its daily functions around the following core values: integrity, diversity, respect, teamwork, learning and growth and accountability, which I really believe in too.”

When asked to give advice to women looking at or currently enrolled at the College, Abby offered, “Stand your ground and don’t let guys take advantage of you!! Make sure you join WItt. they have really fun activities and the director, Jo (tyndall), is awesome! there aren’t that many girls, so you need to stick together.”

Salyiena Lo is 2013 graduate of thaddeus Stevens College of technology from the Business Administration program. Following graduation, Salyiena continued her education at elizabethtown College where she is majoring in Accounting. Salyiena remains a tutor at thaddeus Stevens as well, helping students in the Business Administration program with accounting.

“My favorite aspect of Stevens was interning in the Financial Aid office and building relationships with thefaculty,”reflectedLo.SalyienaworkedintheFinancialAidOfficeduring her second year at the College. the internship allowed her to build knowledge of the business field, as it relates to higher education, student loans and general financial assistance.

Salyiena was a Stevens Grant student during her second year at the College. She admits this was incredibly helpful as a student. She was able to live at home and commute, but also had the opportunity to have her tuition and other expenses covered by the grant.

Ironically, Stevens was not Salyiena’s first choice. “Honestly, I did not plan on attending to Stevens at all. I was applying to other colleges such as Millersville university, West Chester university, and university of pittsburgh,” Salyiena commented. “then, I decided last minute to apply to Stevens and see if I could get in.”

Salyiena never looked back. She became involved with power Source, the Christian organization at Stevens, and she became involved with the College’s Student Congress. Within the Student Congress, Salyiena served as treasurer and designed the organization’s website.

When asked if she had any advice for women considering Stevens, Salyiena commented, “My advice would be get involved in some club/activities to get some idea of what you’ll be dealing with in the real world after graduation. Get an internship to have a deeper understanding of your major and then apply what you learn from your major.”

Page 12: Defining Moments

Although known for our high placement rate, a little known fact about thaddeus Stevens College is the significant numbers of Stevens alumni who have become successful business

entrepreneurs.

Michael Biggerstaff ’79 is one such example. Biggerstaff became interested in graphic arts and printing in middle school when he selected an industrial arts course. that interest continued through high school and after one year at a university. But he didn’t want to continue toward teaching in that field. So, Biggerstaff enrolled at Stevens as a grant student. “printing was a process that was fulfilling, from starting a design to a finished printed product. It really changed the direction of my life.”

“Stevens was a perfect college for me and I was very fortunate to be a part of it. I graduated with a good overall knowledge of the process which helped me in my early jobs. upon graduation I had three job offers and started working at Science press the Monday after graduation.”

From 1979 to 1990 Biggerstaff advanced through senior management levels at Science press, publishers Choice, and International Computaprint Corp. While at Computaprint, Biggerstaff recognized an opportunity for a new product service—article reprints, through a survey of customers. But Computaprint wasn’t interested in providing the service. In 1990, he, along with three others, started Reprint Management Services (RpM) “which grew to a workforce of 70 people when we sold it in 2007.”

Again during his ownership of RpM, in 2003, Biggerstaff recognized a future of digital printing, an industry technology and started nXtBook Media. today, nXtBook has 56 employees in the united States, mostly in lancaster, plus another 5 people in Manchester, Great Britain. there are 3 million nXtBooks opened on a monthly basis on websites, 40% of which are international. over 30 million nxtbook pages are read monthly including books, annual reports, handbooks, travel brochures, catalogues, and other informational sources of multiple pages. “It is a fast growing web communication tool. I’m proud that nXtBook has been honored in various publications for our growth and as a “best place to work.”

Stevens taught me that community service is important, which I follow today. I also encourage employee community service at nxtbook. each employee who completes 2 hours of community service annually earns a Birthday Holiday, and every five years they are involved employees can take a two week sabbatical to spend a minimum at least 10 hours a week on a community service project. every five years they can add 2 more weeks and 10 more hours to a sabbatical. the employees have made an impact in their communities with their projects.”

“My future goals,” Biggerstaff commented, “are to see nxtbook become an “employee owned Company”, write a book and do some consulting. that will be fulfilling my career. And it all started with the preparation I received at thaddeus Stevens College. Stevens provided me opportunity I would recommend to today’s youth to pursue.”

thaddeus Stevens College is fortunate to have many experienced alumni as faculty members. Following their graduation, they established themselves in their career

fields and later returned here to teach. When not in the classroom, many continue their associations with their industries in various ways to stay current in industry trends.

Ron Schwartz ’88 and Alex Surra ’05 of the Machine tool and Computer Aided Manufacturing technology program are two of the many alumni faculty here at Stevens. they exemplify a passion for their industry and for teaching students, traits that can be found in all alumni faculty teaching here at their alma mater.

“I came to the college as a Stevens Grant student, which afforded me a great education and prepared me well for my future,” Schwartz noted. “After graduating from Stevens, I continued at Millersville university where I secured a B.S. degree and then worked for Case new Holland and Graybill’s tool and Die in Manheim. I joined Stevens’ faculty 17 years ago and have seen many changes in both the College and the industry.”

“this is my second year with the College,” Surra said. “I too graduated from Stevens, and then pursued B.S. and M.S. degrees in technology education from Millersville university. I worked for Ames Reese Inc. of Bird-In-Hand, and Red lion Area Senior High School. Coming back to Stevens was a great opportunity and I enjoy teaching the students. I am glad to be able give back to the program that allowed me to be successful.”

Q. Why should anyone pursue a career in machine technology today, and what do students need to be successful?

A. there are so many new opportunities available for our Machine technology graduates. the u.S. Department of labor, Bureau of labor Statistics projects growth of 19% in high-skilled jobs in manufacturing from 2010 to 2020 due to reshoring of jobs formerly run overseas and baby boomer retirements. Many of these jobs are related to machining.

Students need to prepare differently than in the past. they must have proficiency in math and problem solving, and be self-disciplined as well as have a good background in

computer programing. Although some companies have manual machines, most now have “computer aided” CnC equipment programed to do the tooling of all types of parts.

the demand for these skills far outweighs the supply. our graduates are able to choose the type of work they desire and be employed immediately. the College has added a night program to help incumbent workers get the training they need to succeed in today’s challenging workforce.

Q. What are your biggest challenges to the program?

A. Recruiting students and keeping up with technology advances. Despite our program’s 100% job placement of graduates, not enough young people are entering the machine technology program to keep up with employment demand. plus, constantly changing technology creates a financial challenge for the College, as it needs to keep up with the state of the industry in training our students. It is important for our industry partners to assist us financially in meeting these equipment needs.

Q. What have you done to overcome these challenges?

A. to help in recruitment, we developed two important programs this past year: a Machine tool Internship program and the Future Machinist Sponsorship program.

the Internship program is part of the curriculum in a student’s second semester of their final year. only students with a 3.0 GpA can apply. Companies will interview and select the student of their choice. the students’ hands-on laboratory time is at the company where they gain on-the-job experience while earning College credit.

the Future Machinist Sponsorship program provides mentoring/guidance for students just entering the College while allowing companies to gain access to qualified students. It brings together company sponsorships, hands-on work opportunities, and guaranteed employment. Qualified applicants are eligible for money to cover tuition, lab fees, books and educational supplies. Both the internship and sponsorship programs provide the added benefit of fostering relationships between the College and local industry while also improving the experience and training of our students.

We also restructured our occupational Advisory Committee (oAC). this committee of representatives from business, industry, and education with vested interest in the Machine tool technology field serves as an advisory group to our program. this year, Dana Dehoff, v.p. of the Manufacturers’ Association of South Central pA, was appointed Chair. numerous sub-committees were developed and have become extremely effective. We have seen an increase of local high school students enrolling in our program either as first-year students or through the Dual enrollment program. thanks to the work of Wes Geib, an industry representative on the Advisory Committee, and members of our outreach sub-committee, the message of “career opportunities” in our field is being received by high school counselors and they are advising their students.

It’s an exciting time here at thaddeus Stevens College. Driven by a new Master plan for academics and facilities, the College has positioned itself to meet the needs of business and industry for the coming years. over 130 companies recently attended the College’s Career Fair, looking to hire Stevens’ graduates. the addition of the new Greiner Campus will open opportunities to double the enrollment of various high-demand programs. our success, however, will depend on the successful partnerships we in the Machine technology program and other technology programs here at the College forge with business and industry, and our ability to support one another.

In today’s rapidly changing workplace, it is important that Thaddeus Stevens College and the businesses and industries we serve work closely

together in providing career and technical education programs and training that are representative of today’s workplace standards.

To accomplish this, each of Stevens College’s 18 major technology programs has an Industry Advisory Council comprised of representatives from business, industry, education, associations and alumni whose experience and abilities represent a cross section of their industry.

Each Advisory Council meets at least twice annually and serves an integral role in the evaluation, development and guidance of the program’s curriculum pertaining to technological change. Some of the areas of advice include providing dialogue on curriculum, equipment selection, facility

design, budget, student competencies, and student placement and internships. They also serve as program ambassadors in community outreach and in the strategic and financial well-being of the program.

“This is especially true regarding the contributions of the Thaddeus Stevens Electrical Technology Program’s Advisory Council,” commented Jon Kramer, Assistant Professor, Electrical Technology. “Our council participants have provided the key impetus in the overall re-development of the Electrical Technology program, both academically and financially, over the past decade. Assisting in the core objectives and outcomes, the council’s input toward our new curriculum greatly helped to expand the student’s educational experience, and placed our program squarely ahead of the employment curve.”

“Of course, excellent input, guidance, and instruction cannot provide the total learning package without the proper tools and equipment to complete the necessary skills components,” said Kramer. “Fortunately, the Electrical Technology Advisory Council’s members, through the generosity of their employers, continue to contribute greatly to the financial and equipment aspects of our program. Recent monetary and equipment assistance and ancillary services to our students’ education include: Alcoa’s and the Dart Foundations’ grants to help us secure training equipment for our program’s sophomore year, PPL Corporation and Schneider Electric equipment contributions, and outstanding support for our student internship program from Alcoa, Tyson Foods, Inc., Pepperidge Farm, R.R. Donnelly, and, most recently, PPL Corporation.”

Some of the College’s other Industry Technical Advisory Councils, such as Machine Technology’s Advisory Council, have subcommittees. “This year, under the our council’s Chair Dana Dehoff, VP of the Manufacturers Association of South Central PA, we established various subcommittees, including an Outreach Committee,” commented Ron Schwartz, Assistant Professor, Machine Tool and Computer Aided Technology .

The Chair of this Outreach Committee is Wes Geib, of Geib’s Manufacturing Solutions. “We recognize that industry representatives must also go into schools and tell the story about available careers and how to prepare. This type of partnership helps the College’s admissions staff in their recruitment efforts. This year our Outreach Committee has visited 13 high school guidance departments. Career and guidance counselors welcomed us at these schools and set up meetings with students who have not chosen a career path, and also occasionally with parents. We introduce the students to the Thaddeus Stevens College machinist course, job opportunities in this field, as well as the excellent job placement record of the College. This has been a successful outreach support program.”

Such support represents the defining moments that add to the quality education Stevens offers and is an important bridge between the College and business and industry. We are always seeking additional representatives to serve on any of our Advisory Councils. If you are willing to serve, please contact the College’s Academic Affairs or Development Offices and we will follow up with you.

“Certainly, the Thaddeus Stevens College Advisory Councils have proven to be an asset to the institution’s continuing success.” Kramer states. “Our drawing power to enroll engaged students, and the outstanding quality of our graduates’ skills to attract the most demanding employers is possible only via the navigational support of our excellent advisory committee members. Metaphorically, our Advisory Council is the rudder for this very sleek and modern ship, without which, we may not have the guidance to bring our students to the best port of call.”

Last September, MyFutureCareer (www.myfuturecareer.us), a new highly interactive career awareness website developed by the College, went live on the internet. This website introduces students and adults to highly rewarding technology-related careers that are in demand.

MyFutureCareer aligns each person’s interests with high-skill careers and connects them with related post-secondary education programs. Each of the College’s major technology programs will be represented with career demonstration videos, interactive career support materials, and fun activities to assist students and teachers in researching careers.

Many of the employees featured in these videos are Stevens alumni. They relate how they selected this career field, what their company does, what a typical day on the job is like, and the type of lifestyle afforded by their career. The career video shows the job on location, so a student can experience the jobsite atmosphere. After the video, an embedded email is offered where a student can submit questions to the job holder and receive feedback about the career within 48 hours, or access a Frequently Asked Questions Bulletin Board.

This website also has activities for students to help them research careers and get answers to career-related questions. As one educator noted, “This is an awesome tool for not only educators but parents to use with their students. It provides a field trip without going out of their room.”

Thaddeus Stevens College is doing its part to attract students to many high-demand technical careers and help them explore their career options. High school career and guidance counselors are talking about this website. It’s a new tool they can use in the classroom to demonstrate and promote careers attainable with a post-secondary technical education degree.

MyFutureCareer is in continual development. More and more careers will be added, including those representing the College’s new major programs that will be starting in the Fall of 2014. We are appreciative of the many foundations and businesses that have contributed their financial support to this project. We encourage you to visit this new career awareness website, www.myfuturecareer.us, and see what all the buzz is about!
