| Linda Ott | Dr. John Lowther | John was the first computer science faculty member at Michigan Tech and who through his efforts over 35 years played a huge role in my department being what it is today. |
| Travis Howard | Pat Hopp | When I was still in school Pat hired me as a student worker at SAS, and I benefited from his guidance greatly. Now, as a staff member, I rely on Pat (and the rest of the SAS crew!) to assist with a variety of computing issues, and I continue to benefit from his knowledge and patience. |

I remember him telling me how much he loved working with students at Michigan Tech and how much he loved his job. I remember thinking that I want to work where does! And last year I did just that! I am now working for Gloria Melton in the Dean of Students Office and I am so grateful for meeting Bill and being affected by his energy, liveliness and positive representation of Michigan Tech. |
