Why I give
The Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture is launching an ambitious campaign to support the next generation of engineering and design students.
Paul Hohenschuh (Chem E, ’64 and ’69) and Marjorie Winkler are providing support for the new Schweitzer Engineering Hall where the chemical engineering and bioengineering senior design space will be named in their honor. The building will provide critical services for student success in one central location on the Pullman campus. Construction is slated to begin in 2024 and is the first step in the college’s effort to revamp the engineering district to better meet students’ needs.
“The capstone class, even back 50 years ago, was and is the first real statement that you are off on a new career. Maybe it was because at the time I was a senior and was interviewing for jobs, but I still remember as I was doing it, I was thinking, ‘I’m no longer just a kid from Washougal, Washington—I’m on my way to having a job and a career and being an engineer.’ That’s a good feeling.” |
