ACHIEVE THE EXTRAORDINARY - Daniel Findley’s Story

Transportation and engineering played a significant role in my career and my grandfather's career. My maternal grandfather, Frank Greenberger, was a PE and graduated from Purdue University in 1948 with a BS in Electrical Engineering and 1950 with an MS in Industrial Engineering. He spent most of his working career with GE at the Transportation Technology Center in Erie, Pennsylvania. He was passionate about trains and his work included developing locomotives for GE. He assisted with the design of one of the buildings in Erie and was given a drawing of the mural that was painted in the facility.

The drawing now hangs proudly in my office and represents the legacy of engineer throughout history and highlights many of the modes of transportation that I've been involved with, including rail, aviation, and roads. It reminds me of the long and important legacy of transportation engineering, the role that engineers play in improving society, the debt we owe to previous generations of engineers, and the responsibility we have for future Professional Engineers. - Dr. Daniel Findley, DTC Civil Transportation Instructor.
