This year, as we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering and the College of Agriculture at Auburn University, we reflect upon the impact our college and graduates have made on our state, our region, our country and our world.

Ten years. It’s been 10 years since I assumed the role of dean of the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering and what a decade of growth, of accomplishments, of a renewed commitment to being the best student-centered engineering experience in America. In this issue — my last as dean — I am excited to share with you the accomplishments of not only the past year, but also to reflect on how far we’ve come in the past decade, together.
