Looking back, the big picture emerging at Louisiana Tech was that of a signature year. Achievements had come in ways both splashy (an invention made national news) and quietly rippling (a student challenged the odds to become a teacher) – and in numbers far too great to tally. Then came Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and their terrible aftermath. In typically incalculable layers of responsiveness, the Tech Family never missed a beat. Some examples: Dr. Box Leangsuksun and a group of computer science graduate students created a Web site aimed at streamlining the search Members of Tech’s Student for people displaced by Government Association Hurricane Katrina.Å arrived ahead of the quarter to aid the displaced Tech community flocking to Caruthers, a closed dormitory that Tech reopened and equipped in less than 24 hours to receive Katrina evacuees.Å When Hurricane Rita struck, Tech hosted McNeese State University’s computing center IN TRIBUTE – servers and families alike.

In the pages of this year’s Tech Report, I want to show you all our accomplishments; however, we cannot lose sight of the terrible toll the hurricanes have taken on our state and its people.” Daniel D. Reneau REFLECTION One month after Hurricane Katrina, the Louisiana Tech community paused for a vigil in the quad to remember the victims of this disaster. Tech’s Chamber Singers performed “Amazing Grace,” accompanied only by the gentle trickle of Lady of the Mist fountain. 4 5 IMPRESSIVE PROGRESS. “Louisiana Tech is not only a place to learn how to be UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES. successful, it’s a place to experience success.

Frederick (B.S. ’92; M.D. ’94; M.B.A. ’11) As the 21st century begins to take shape, the word “global” has grown increasingly popular with institutions that want to be associated with the attributes it connotes: interconnected, fast-paced, dynamic and diverse. The adjective “global,” however, is easier to assert than to deserve, so while Howard University is a thoroughly global institution, it is fair to ask, “How so?” It begins with our myriad connections to every corner of the world.
