Local student inducted into the Order of the Engineer
TROY — Stephanie Fortune of Tupper Lake, was among the 210 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute seniors on Oct. 30 inducted into the Order of the Engineer, a national organization dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards for the engineering profession.
In addition to taking the Order of the Engineer pledge, each inductee received a stainless-steel ring to be worn on the little finger of their dominant hand. The rings represent each student’s daily commitment to serving humanity through engineering. These students will follow in the footsteps of RPI graduates who, since 1824, have applied technology and innovation to solving the world’s toughest problems.
