UTEP "Alumni honored during homecoming week"

¡Ora, MEChA!

¡Adelante, DESTINO!

¡Ora, UTEP!

Ms. Beatriz A. Castañeda has today's headlines.

¡Adelante, Beatriz!




Somewhat loosely adapted from The UTEP Prospector, Posted 9/29/09.

"The fall semester has truly begun when college students enjoy tailgates, football games and homecoming.

"Along with the many celebrations happening during homecoming week, UTEP alumni will also be proudly celebrated and honored as Distinguished Alumni."

Among those to be so honored will be:

"Victor Mendez, head administrator of the Federal Highway Administration.

"Mendez began his career as a civil engineering student and earned his bachelor's degree in 1980 .

"Selected by President Barack Obama, he is now the nation's top federal highway official.

"Mendez's job includes supervising highway and road maintenance, highway construction as well as freight operations.

"Mendez said, It has been an interesting journey and it has given me a lot of opportunities. UTEP helped me open those opportunities to become part of what I am now..."

Way to go, Señor Ingeniero! :)
