Congratulations:

-Congratulations Nettie Rowland, media relations director, for helping to coordinate the huge color photo (see below) and story on Carly Fiorina's speech from A&T's 2005 Spring Commencement. Rowland worked with the lifestyle section of a Singapore newspaper called The Straits Times. It is the largest English newspaper in Singapore with a circulation of 400,000. Thanks to the efforts of Rowland and the University Relations team, A&T’s graduation received local, state, national and international media coverage.

-It's been a great year for Sandra Brown and Charles Watkins. Thanks to A&T's publications director and university photographer for keeping Aggies abreast of good news and super photos in the A&T Today magazine, Aggie Report, Chancellor's Annual Report and many other publications.

-Special thanks to Darlene East, Daphne Roach and Karen Haygood for the detailed technical support they provide the Office of University Relations. This team has excellent customer relations skills as they meet, greet and assist hundreds of parents, students, alumni, corporate and community supporters.

-Best wishes to Keely Colburn who helped coordinate many successful A&T special events over the past year. She recently received a new marketing opportunity with Pepsi.
