The Lally School of Management and the School of Architecture have designated the recipients of this year’s Rensselaer Alumni Association Fellows Award. The Fellows Award was created in 1987 to honor members of the Rensselaer community who, by their achievements in a chosen profession or endeavor or by their service to the Institute, have set an example for Rensselaer men and women to emulate.
The Lally School selected William Pomeroy, who received a bachelor’s degree in management engineering in 1966, and who has participated in a number of alumni activities including the Annual Fund and the planning committee for the 35th reunion of the Class of ’66 in addition to founding CABLExpress Technologies, which sells and supports networking equipment, cabling tools, and test equipment.
The School of Architecture honored James Collins, who received a bachelor’s in building science in 1977, a bachelor’s of architecture in 1978, and a master’s in management in 1978, all from RPI. Collins is currently president and CEO of Payette Associates, a 71-year-old firm that does a great deal of work for universities and medical schools. He is a member of the Rensselaer School of Architecture Advisory Board and a member of the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center External Advisors Committee.
