'86

Jim Heldt '86 unpacks the Kohler display for the February Job Fair at Michigan Tech. There are fewer companies this year, but the subdued atmosphere hasn't dampened Heldt's enthusiasm for this event or Michigan Tech students. Todd Stewart '68 is not surprised. As the new director of institutional partnerships, he's seen many such uber-alums involved with their alma mater in many different ways.
