    After 21 years of service on the committee, William D. Wells chairman and chief executive officer of W.D. Wells and Associates Inc., in West Grove retired in order to pursue other activities.



    Advisory committees, which act as recommending bodies to Pennsylvania College of Technology faculty and administration, consist of in-field professionals who serve as partners in the development of curriculum. Their curricular and equipment advice, as well as their industry connections and internship opportunities, are invaluable to students and to the growth of Penn College's programs.

    "Bill's background and knowledge has been a tremendous resource for our faculty and students," said Mary A. Sullivan, dean of natural resources management. "We will certainly miss him, but wish him the best in his future endeavors."
