Trane Awards Scholarships to CETA Students

On Friday, January 23, 2009, Daniel J. Wendl, vice president for the northeast, and William H. Harris, III, district leader–Connecticut, of Trane, manufacturers of heating, ventilating, air conditioning and building management equipment and systems with a worldwide presence, came to CETA to congratulate this year’s recipients of the Trane High Performing Building Scholarships. Pictured below with Wendl and Harris are Amy Scherma, a mechanical engineering major, and Suzan Ozcelik, an architectural engineering technology major.

The scholarships are awarded each year to CETA students majoring in engineering, technology, or architecture, who have a GPA of at least 3.5. The winners are chosen by the Dean of CETA and the Director of Financial Aid. Because high-performance buildings are key to a green, energy efficient, sustainable future, Trane decided to emphasize that in their scholarship awards.

CETA thanks Trane for their generosity to our students and congratulates our two students for their hard work.
