Steward Cline, a 1976 aeronautical engineering graduate, was one of the visitors to
the President’s Hospitality Suite during Homecoming on Oct. 6. He is pictured here
with Storm and Dr. Sheri Trine.
Earlier this year, Cline won the 2018 Chuck Chadwell Customer Advocacy Award from GE Aviation. The award comes with a $5,000 stipend for charity that Cline donated to the Trine University Scholarship Fund. The funds were used to establish the Steward J. & Bonita H. Cline Scholarship, with the balance going toward Books and Beyond scholarships.
In the past, Cline received the Edison Award for outstanding engineering from GE and donated the $25,000 stipend from that award to help relocate the wind tunnel at Trine. Cline serves on the advisory board for Trine University’s mechanical and aeronautical engineering programs.
Cline also has supported the Trine Fund, Sigma Phi Epsilon Memorial Scholarship, the license plate program and the Wade Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Ellen Paxton has joined Trine University as assistant vice president of advancement, bringing more than 25 years of experience in fundraising and institutional promotion to the position.
Laurie Stockton-Moreno, director of The Center for Montessori Education at Trine University (CMETU), was part of a team that introduced area eighth- and ninth-grade students to Montessori education during a recent event.
For the third year, Trine University sport management students are partnering with the NBA’s Detroit Pistons to learn the ticket sales process and sharpen their sales skills.
