It all started when the UAA Welding & Nondestructive Testing Technology program received a somewhat unconventional inquiry letter from a prospective student.
"Dear Sir/Madam
Hello, my name is Angel Nunez and I am a 5th grader at Twombly Elementary School in Ft. Lupton, Colorado. I hope to one day attend your wonderful trade school for welding and one day get my welding license. Could you please send me two posters and two pennants to hang up in my bedroom and classroom to remind me how hard I need to work to achieve this goal.
Thanks, Angel Nunez"
As one might imagine, the faculty and staff in the welding program eagerly welcomed the interest shown by this aspiring Seawolf... Head over to the CTC Insider to read more about Angel.
