It’s hard to believe that another decade has come and gone. The 2010s were marked by planning, progress, and change. And a lot has changed. The decade began much as the last one ended, with most of the world still in the middle of a financial crisis, high unemployment, and a depressed housing market.
STAN WALDHAUSER
Apple had just released the new iPhone 4 and the first iPad, bringing the new technology of touch screen computing to new levels. Microsoft combined Bing and Yahoo search technology in an attempt to break the Google monopoly and Android powered phones began to outsell Apple in the smart phone market. Solar power also began plunging in cost and Augmented Reality started entering the mainstream. Speech-to-speech translation became common on mobile phones and consumer-level robotics started to take off. Fast-forward 10 years and the world today is a much different place. The economy is growing, unemployment is at a record low, and the housing market has rebounded. And the technological changes are even more dramatic. Automation is now commonplace and permeating every industry — from farming to freight transport. The sales of electric and hybrid trucks have surpassed 100,000 annually and web-connected video devices now exceed the global population. Wireless, implantable devices can now monitor health conditions in real time, and 3D printing is now mainstream in consumer technology. These changes aren’t just fascinating — they are impacting the work that Dunwoody does on a day-today basis. We are educating today’s workforce and tomorrow’s leaders, all of whom are entering industries that are not just changing year to year, but month to month. As industry changes — so must we. Dunwoody has always been a leader in teaching students the skills needed to adapt to a changing marketplace. Skills like collaboration and creative problem-solving are some of the things that set Dunwoody students apart — and one of the reasons they are in such high demand. In fact, the demand for these skilled workers has never been higher. Students who earned their degree from Dunwoody last May had an average of 15.7 job inquiries per graduate. We are committed to keeping ahead of these trends and changes, which is why we have dedicated the last five years to accomplishing the goals we set in Vision 2020. We strategically invested in growing the College through
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT new programs, partnerships, and pipelines. We worked to develop the Dunwoody student through a revitalized student life program and student support systems, and we worked to raise the profile of the College and invested in our campus and brand. We can be proud of the accomplishments we’ve made, even as we focus on what the future holds. All of these things wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our alumni, friends, industry partners, and donors. As we enter a new year and a new decade, I’m excited about what lays ahead. I know that the legacy of innovation, hard work, and determination will continue. I’m looking forward to beginning the next chapter of success and growth, and I’m grateful to be surrounded by a community that is still committed to Dunwoody’s mission of changing lives and building opportunities for more students to gain access to the great careers a Dunwoody education makes possible. Stay committed. Be proud. Together we are Dunwoody!

NANCY & ROGER MCCABE DONOR SPOTLIGHT
DUNWOODY COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY — A LU M N I & F R I E N D S M AGA Z I N E — A N N UA L R E P O RT 2 0 19

A passion for giving back After listening to a presentation about the history and legacy of William and Kate Dunwoody during a Women’s Club program a year ago, Nancy McCabe knew she wanted to find out more about the College that bore their name.
With Dunwoody, the McCabes were motivated to help after hearing about the history of the founders and the mission of the school, spending time on campus, and meeting Anthony Rush, one of the College’s veteran students.
“When I got home, I told Roger that we have to look into this,” Nancy recalled.
The couple, who have been married for 16 years, live in Wayzata and spend a lot of their time giving back to the community.
Soon after, the couple came to campus for a tour — and walked away knowing they wanted to help out in some way. From those first meetings, the “Got Your Six” fund was created. The fund provides emergency and scholarship support to veteran and military students at the College. Created through a generous donation from the Roger and Nancy McCabe Foundation, it allows Dunwoody’s Financial Aid Office to step in when veteran and military students face gaps in educational benefits or have emergency funding needs, such as transportation and housing issues, delayed Veterans Administration benefit payments, and other unforeseen obstacles to attendance. Establishing the assistance program through a dedicated fund also means that other people can step in and help. In fact, the McCabes invite others to join them by contributing to the “Got Your Six” fund and help ensure that veteran and military students are able to pursue their education and dreams after serving our country. Supporting veteran programs isn’t new to the McCabes. Growing up during the Vietnam era, the McCabes have always had an affinity to those who serve and have continually sought out ways to ensure service men and women have the resources they need. This includes funding scholarships for veteran students at other universities, such as Metropolitan State University. They also support the Minnesotans’ Military Appreciation Fund, which provides grants to Minnesota service members who have served in a combat zone since Sept. 11, 2001; FOLDS OF HONOR, which provides scholarships to children of veteran and military families; and Dogs for our Brave (dogsforourbrave.com).
They are supporters of MATTER, a global nonprofit that works to move people forward by eliminating barriers to a healthier life. Through their work with the organization, the McCabes have traveled annually to Senegal in Africa with The Gorgui Dieng Project in Dakar, which they established in partnership with Minnesota Timberwolves player Gorgui Dieng to elevate the quality of healthcare for the people of Senegal, where Dieng is from. Through the program, they also established the Roger & Nancy McCabe Dialysis Center, which provides life-saving dialysis to patients in need. This year will mark the fifth year the McCabes will travel to Senegal to see the progress of the program. “It’s very gratifying to be able to help those in need, and we are fortunate to be able to do that,” Nancy said. The McCabes give of their time as well, volunteering regularly for places like the St. Louis Park Emergency Food Shelf; Assistance League of Minneapolis/St. Paul, which provides help for women and children; Opportunity International, which provides micro-grants for women to help get them and their families out of poverty. “When you volunteer, you get to see how you are impacting those who need help, and you feel good about that,” Roger said. Volunteering and giving back is something the McCabes encourage others to do as well. “It’s about finding an organization that speaks to you and a way to give back,” Nancy said.

TERRI OESTMANN
LEGACY SPOTLIGHT
Terri Oestmann has always been a bit of a pioneer. And it’s that pioneering spirit that led her to Dunwoody and the railroads. Now, through a legacy gift, others will get that same opportunity. Back in the 1980s, Oestmann was working a series of dead end jobs after high school and knew she wanted more from her life. “I attended a secretarial program just to get myself out from behind a broom, and in the process I fell in love with computers and technology,” Oestmann said. “I was not meant to be a secretary, but I had a great time working with all of the new technologies.” Oestmann enrolled at NEI, which later merged with Dunwoody College, for electronics with an emphasis in computers. Through the program she received her FCC license, which allowed her to go into telecommunications after graduating in 1996. When the BNSF Railway opened up a telecommunications division, Oestmann jumped at the opportunity.
The division was cut in 2005, so Oestmann transferred into the diesel shop as a diesel locomotive electrician. “It was a much more industrial job,” Oestmann said. “But it was still just basically following the bouncing electrons down the wire.” She was one of the few women who worked in the shop, and that could be challenging at times. Like the time the new innovative testing device she invented (which had been recognized with an award) was discovered crushed inside a vise. And it also meant she wasn’t given some of the better projects to work on. “I wanted to get out of the shop and do more creative work,” Oestmann said. It was this desire to do more with her career that led Oestmann back to Dunwoody. This time, for Industrial Engineering Technology. The College had just added the program and Oestmann would be part of the very first graduating class.

She graduated from the program in 2013 and soon after started a new position with the Railway — Rapid Responder.
fixing. They are even building an addition on their home and doing much of the work themselves.
The position came with a big salary increase and a chance to move to Illinois.
Oestmann has always believed in living frugally and that lifestyle has allowed her to save enough to leave her own legacy behind. One that will benefit future Dunwoody students.
In her new role, Oestmann was part of a team that chases down broken trains and did what they could to fix them out in the field. It was a physically-demanding job that required a lot of ingenuity and creativity. “We did a lot of bale wire and bubble gum fixes,” she said. Oestmann stayed in her position as a Rapid Responder until she retired when she was in her 50s. After retiring, she and her husband bought a hobby farm out in the middle of the Ozarks, in a small defunct township — population five. There Oestmann grows vegetables and helps out her neighbors when things break down and need
“I wanted to provide opportunities for others to have a way up in life,” she said. She encourages others to explore a technical degree. Oestmann is one of the College’s legacy donors, meaning she has included Dunwoody in her will. “Dunwoody was a wonderful environment and a wonderful experience for me,” she said. “I want other people to have the chance to use their talents in the best way possible. We all do better, when we all do better.”
“WE ALL DO BETTER, WHEN WE ALL DO BETTER.”

2019 President’s Dinner
& Partnership Awards
Otto Bremer
Founded in 1944, the Otto Bremer Trust has been committed to investing in people, places, and opportunities in the Upper Midwest that contribute to a better future for all. It’s a mission that reflects the intent of its founder, Otto Bremer. Otto Bremer came to Minnesota as a German immigrant in 1886 seeking opportunities for a good life. Over the next 36 years, he worked his way up to become chairman of the American National Bank and a dedicated community leader involved in civic, financial, and corporate life. Since its founding, the Otto Bremer Trust has granted more than $700 million to help further his mission in Bremer communities here at home. The 2019 Partnership Award was presented to the Otto Bremer Trust in recognition and sincere appreciation of its generous support of Dunwoody during the last two decades. Brian Lipschultz accepted the award on behalf of the Otto Bremer Trust. Their gift to the Leading the Way campaign helped fuel a campus transformation that will better serve Dunwoody's programs and students. The award also recognizes Otto Bremer Trust’s consistent support of Dunwoody’s Women in Technical Careers program, helping low-income women prepare for high-wage jobs in nontraditional careers, and ultimately helping to strengthen the Twin Cities community.

In September, Dunwoody College of Technology held its annual President’s Dinner, which celebrates and honors donors who give at the President’s Club Level or higher. This year’s event was held at the Golden Valley Country Club, and more than 145 people were in attendance. During the event, President Rich Wagner presented the College’s 2019 Partnership Award to General Mills and the Otto Bremer Trust. Both organizations were recognized for their long-standing history of supporting the College.
General Mills
It’s a partnership that has spanned more than a century and began with William H. Dunwoody, one of the four partners of Washburn, Crosby & Company — known today as General Mills. William Dunwoody and his wife Kate L. Dunwoody founded the William Hood Dunwoody Industrial Institute — now Dunwoody College — in 1914 through an endowment. In his will, Dunwoody named the 12 original trustees of the College, eight of whom were fellow business executives at the Washburn Crosby Company. Throughout the years, General Mills has been an invaluable partner. The College is grateful for the continued support, which has benefited our students, elevated our reputation, and allowed us to expand our reach. The 2019 Partnership Award was presented to General Mills in recognition and appreciation of all that the Company has done and continues to do to positively impact the Dunwoody community. Gregg Stedronsky accepted the award on behalf of General Mills. These generous contributions include funding a portion of Dunwoody’s campus transformation; continued support for the Youth Career Awareness Program, which helps low-income students obtain access to high-paying technical careers; and equipment donations that give students access to real-life industry training and experience.

Kate L. Dunwoody Society Luncheon Presented by Talla Skogmo Interior Design SANCHAYITA RAY | KEYNOTE SPEAKER STRATEGY AND MARKET DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR, MORTENSON
On October 23, 2019, more than 320 people attended the annual Kate L. Dunwoody Society Luncheon, which celebrates women in technical fields. Held at Dunwoody, the event recognizes the vision and generosity of Kate L. Dunwoody and raises scholarship funds for students at Dunwoody. This year’s event raised nearly $80,000, which is more than double what has been raised in prior years. This success of this year’s event wouldn’t have been possible without the support and generosity of our sponsors, including: Presenting Sponsor, Talla Skogmo Interior Design; Hospitality Sponsor, Morrie’s Classic Cars; Industry Sponsor, Emerson; and VIP Reception Sponsor, Parsons Electric LLC. The program included remarks by keynote speaker Sanchayita Ray, Strategy and Market Development Director for Mortenson. Ray emphasized not only the need for more women to enter STEM fields, but also the need for more female role models to encourage and support them in industry. The Kate Dunwoody Luncheon is an annual event that brings women and industry together in celebration and pursuit of increasing the number of women pursuing careers in the STEM fields.

BENJAMIN LARSEN
STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
ENGINEERING & DATA One of the projects Larsen enjoyed the most was for his Geometric Dimension & Tolerancing & Measurements class. “We had to come up with a device that would record data and perform uncertainty analysis. And it had to be as automated as possible,” Larsen said. He and a classmate built a Computer Measuring Machine. They designed and 3D printed the components to make the measuring device itself. An Arduino microcontroller captured the measurements and fed them to a Raspberry Pi computer, which pushed the data up to a network. After making sure the data flowed and converted correctly, Larsen then pulled it down to his laptop and used a Python application to plot the data points. The end result was a device, or rather a system of connected devices, that probed several points on a surface and then graphed the points to see how flat the surface being measured was. They used a surface plate in the College’s Metrology Lab as a comparison and generated heat maps for other surfaces — tables, carpet, pieces of plywood — to show their variability. REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE The College’s project-centered curriculum works well for Larsen. And he’s already using his skills beyond Dunwoody’s walls.
Senior Mechanical Engineering student Benjamin Larsen developed a long list of skills and interests thanks to a childhood spent tinkering in his family’s garage and the woods near his house. His curiosity was fueled further by a family with an entrepreneurial spirit and a curiosity about how the world works. As a homeschooler, Larson took PSEO classes (Postsecondary Enrollment Options) and planned to take a year off after graduating from high school. But after Dunwoody came up in conversations he decided to check it out and visit campus.
Going into his senior year, Larsen has completed internships with Design Ready Controls, and Graco. He has also done contract design work using the SolidWorks skills he learned in his year as an MDES student and currently has a contract programming magnetic fields for different mechanisms. This is in addition to continuing an internship at Boston Scientific where he started out as a tech intern for the batteries manufacturing department. Larsen has now moved into engineering and is doing design work and prototyping. One of his current projects is to redesign a welder. To speed the project up, Larsen took CNC training with Productivity Inc. so he can machine the parts himself. WHAT’S NEXT
“I wasn’t sure what to expect from a private technical school,” Larsen said. “Very quickly I noticed the small classes, and the fact that a lot of people have jobs and families. There’s a diverse range of ages and backgrounds.”
After graduating this May — as part of the inaugural Mechanical Engineering class — Larsen hopes to land a full-time position with either Boston Scientific or the company he’s doing the magnetic field programming for.
Larsen enrolled in the Engineering Drafting & Design (MDES) program and switched to Mechanical Engineering when that degree became available the fall of 2016.
He’s also considering working part-time with his brother on a start-up company that focuses on improving automation technology for food production.
“I knew right away that I wanted to do more than what MDES was offering,” Larsen said. “I wanted to get into data analysis, but also maintain the design and hands-on stuff that MDES offered.”
“I want to get really good at automating food production so I can use that to produce food in space, whether that’s on satellites or planets,” he said. “Space companies are popping up and in the next five to 10 years food production in space is going to become more important. The technology is there — it just needs to be developed and tested.”
His time at Dunwoody has also changed his perspective on what success looks like. “Work ethic is now a lot more important to me than intellect,” he said.
The first class of Dunwoody’s Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering program will graduate in May 2020.

SECRET AGENT STYLE BACHELOR OF ARCHITECTURE STUDENT DESIGNS JAMES BOND INSPIRED HOME
Who hasn’t dreamed of the secret agent life filled with gadgets, a jet-setting lifestyle and an Aston Martin in the garage? Part of that fantasy could become reality thanks to the vision and design skills of Dunwoody Architecture student Austin Rastall and his instructor Kerrik Wessel.
Wessel, who is also a big fan of James Bond, pitched the idea to use the opening credits of the 2006 film Casino Royale as inspiration for the concept.
Last spring, Wessel, an adjunct instructor in the Bachelor of Architecture program at Dunwoody, was approached by Todd Shipman, a realtor with Lakes Sotheby’s International Realty who owns undeveloped land in the South Tyrol Hills neighborhood of Golden Valley. Because it is a steeply graded lot, he needed architectural renderings to help potential buyers envision what the parcel could look like.
Rastall also jumped at the opportunity.
Much to his surprise, Shipman agreed. “Art and architecture are always inspired by something or someone,” Shipman said. Growing up, he often talked about building details with friends, and was curious how people interacted with those structures. Now in his third year, he knows that Architecture has always been his calling. MYSTERY, MOVEMENT, LIGHT, AND SHADOW “At school we try to come up with a good story for all of our designs,” Wessel said. “We develop it and come up with a reason for the house.” The Bond house began with four adjectives: mystery, movement, light, and shadow. Researching set designers intimate with James Bond movies provided direction. From there, they landed on the Brutalistic movement of the 1970s, a cold architectural style that used concrete, steel, and glass. The two met weekly over the summer, sketching and brainstorming how they could infuse the James Bond essence into their design. Details include a hidden, moving concrete wall that pivots to conceal a movie theater room and the utility room. Building upon inspiration for James Bond, there are subtle nods to sevens throughout, from built-ins to the basic footprint of the home — two concrete masses that form a seven. There is also a steel staircase and a lot of glass throughout. “I think it is fun for students to get involved with projects that are really interesting and that have legs like this,” Wessel said. “It is also a good stepping-stone for your career if it comes to fruition.” The experience has been beneficial for Rastall. “I’ve figured out new ways to problem solve; to come up with new designs for structural areas when something wasn’t working.”
Wessel agreed to take on the project pro-bono — with a couple of conditions. “I wanted it to be fun, and get my students involved,” he said. Rastall was a student in Wessel’s class when the Bond house project first surfaced. Wessel knew their style meshed and asked for his help over the summer.
Project-based education is the norm for students at Dunwoody, and the excitement of working on such a project this early in his education is not something he takes lightly. If someone purchases the land and wants to build Rastall’s design, he will be able to be involved in the build process. “It could mean a lot of things for me,” he said. “It could mean a start to a successful career in architecture, especially if it gets built.”
