White during his tenure as Dean. He stated, “…being students at Georgia Tech, you have had a significant impact on the world. Those who wonder why Georgia Tech’s College of Engineering enjoys an impeccable reputation need only look at your accomplishments.” Subsequently, he passed the torch to Dr. Jean-Lou Chameau, former Georgia Tech Provost and Engineering Dean, whose outstanding service to the College of Engineering led him to receive the 2006 Dean’s Appreciation Award from then-Dean Dr. Don P. Giddens, a Tech engineering alumnus. The alumni awards program is now under the leadership of current Dean Dr. Gary S. May, who received his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Georgia Tech. Each year, the College of Engineering recognizes, with an induction ceremony, select alumni who have contributed to the profession, advanced in their careers, and enhanced the lives of others both personally and professionally. These outstanding alumni are reviewed by committees within each of the eight schools within the College and formally submitted for selection. Special Thanks G.

Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I’d dress her in White and Gold, And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold. But if I had a son, sir, I’ll tell you what he’d do. He would yell, “To hell with Georgia,” like his daddy used to do. Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds, A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it around. I’d drink to all good fellows who come from far and near. I’m a ramblin’, gamblin’, hell of an engineer!
