HIWT RECOGNIZES
EXCELLENCE
In our fall 2004 issue, the Hobart
Institute announced a new program to recognize excellence in
performance of people who go above and beyond the requirements
or levels of desirability to exceed normal expectations. Those
people will continue to be recognized on the pages of The
World of Welding.
The bold print
designates new additions to the list.
PERFECT ATTENDANCE
Students may
earn this status by attending Hobart Institute in the five-month
Structural Welding Program or nine-month
Combination Structural and Pipe Welding Program without
missing even one day of class. The list is growing and
students are encouraged to strive for this goal.

ACADEMIC
ACHIEVEMENT
Hobart
Institute provides two levels of academic achievement. This
recognition is based on the grade point average of students in
the five or nine-month programs at HIWT. Candidates for this
award must reach a GPA or 3.6 to 3.79 to receive high honors and
3.8 to 4.0 to receive the highest honors.
HIWT ALUMNI
This
category recognizes individuals who completed programs at HIWT
and are now successful in the welding industry and have promoted
welding and the Hobart Institute through their career path.
Doug
Longenecker - New Hudson, Michigan
VOCATIONAL WELDING
INSTRUCTORS
To receive recognition as an instructor, you
must send a minimum of four (4 ) students over a time period of
four years to Hobart Institute for further education. That is
just one student per year or may be cumulative (2 students each
year for 2 years; 4 students in one year, etc.). Remind your
students that they must list your name or tell us about your
influence when they register for classes at the Hobart
Institute.
A
posthumous award is being granted to Lonnie Scott of the J.
Everett Light Career Center in Indianapolis, Indiana.
(Please see memorial that was written
by his students and certainly is deserving of a reprint on the
pages of this magazine.) Lonnies son-in-law and now welding
instructor at J. Everett
Light Career Center, Eric Cooper, accepted the award.
