It
is well known that NTA has engineers licensed in all 50 states, the District of
Columbia and Guam. Engineering of some form can be found in all of the services
NTA offers, whether the project is for testing, design or CAD. NTA not only
employs some of today’s brightest engineers, they also encourage the next
generation of engineers as well. NTA, Inc. works closely with the NorthWood
Scholarship Foundation to provide a $1,000 scholarship to a senior enrolled in
a college or university to pursue an engineering degree. These future
engineers, and the new techniques they will learn, are vital to the housing and
building industry.
This
year’s recipient is Kari Minnich, who plans to obtain her Engineering Degree
through the cooperative program between Bethel College and the University of
Notre Dame. Kari graduated with a 4.0 GPA, and while that is an accomplishment
on its own, she achieved her Honors Diploma while serving as a volunteer tutor
and working with the Northwood High School Student Council road cleanup. In
addition, she has been a member of show choir, vocal jazz and choir throughout
her four years at Northwood High School. Kari is also active in her church, and
took part in mission trips to Chicago and Kenya, as well as participating in
the “Feed My Starving Children” mission outreach. Her counselor, Karen Renner,
describes her as “… one of those students who possesses a quiet dignity and yet
not only meets but exceeds every expectation.”
NTA
and the Tompos family wish Kari the best of luck in college and everything that
comes after!
