In August 1945, weeks after Japan’s surrender marked the end of World War II, a group of Tech students gathered in Room 11 of the Aerospace Engineering Building to form a flying club. As an announcement in the Georgia Tech student newspaper, the Technique, put it, “There are a large number of Naval ROTC, veteran, and civilian fliers on the campus at the present time, and many other interested men want to learn to fly.”
Georgia Tech's main campus, with 400 acres and more than 15,000 trees, has a team of landscape professionals maintaining its beauty year-round. Tech Lawn and Garden taps into the knowledge of the lawn and garden experts in Landscape Services, showing how they do what they do and sharing tips that you can use at home.
Everyone’s career path is marked by pivotal moments and people along the way. Often we learn the most about ourselves and experience the greatest personal growth from our interpersonal relationships. This month, as part of Women’s History Month, we talked with women at Georgia Tech about the role mentorship has played in their experience working, learning, and researching — and how their relationships play a part in each other’s histories and personal stories.
