Graduate
Walter Towner emails, “I was recently promoted to associate professor of operations and industrial engineering at WPI. Shari Worthington, MBA’90, and I collaborate at the WPI Center for Innovative Manufacturing Solutions, where I am the director. I am sad to see one of my greatest influences, the inaugural dean of the Foisie Business School at WPI, Mark Rice [Babson’s new acting provost], leave WPI, but then Babson gains a terrific new provost at the same time. Congratulations, Mark, and thanks for supporting me.”
