60th

The 4th annual event brought in nearly $340,000, including challenge matches, from more than 1,565 donors in 53 countries.

The goal is to secure participation by obtaining donations from as many Florida Tech alumni as possible during this 24-hour time period.

Graduates from each of Florida Tech’s colleges were presented with Outstanding Alumni awards. A sixth alumnus received the night’s top honor, the Jerome P. Keuper Distinguished Alumni Award.

Named after university founder Jerome P. Keuper, the award recognizes an alumnus whose career accomplishments honor the university’s legacy of excellence.

Held Oct. 11-14, the annual gathering of alumni, faculty, staff, students and community members starts with a 5K run/walk on Thursday, Oct. 11.

Moore's Law and the future of physics will be among the topics discussed at the Library After Hours event starting at 6:30 p.m. Friday. The public is invited.

Florida Tech celebrated its Founders Day with a fireworks display that drew thousands to the Olin Quad on campus Saturday night.
