The naming ceremony for Shippensburg University’s School of Engineering took place on Tuesday, Sept. 27, at 11 a.m., and all students and faculty were invited to attend.

Milton K. Morgan III is a Shippensburg alumnus who graduated in 1976 with a degree in business administration. Through Milton’s career at J. Walter Miller Co., a bass and bronze casting company started by his great-grandfather in 1887, he and his wife Doreen became inspired to support the School of Engineering.

Guest speakers at the ceremony included Leslie Folmer Clinton, president & CEO of the Shippensburg University Foundation; Charles E. Patterson, president of Shippensburg University; Milton and Doreen Morgan and many more. Each speaker discussed the honor and privilege it is to have the Morgan family present and for their generous donation to Shippensburg University.

The School of Engineering opened in 2018. In 2020, it moved into the building that sits at the base of the hill that holds Old Main. Years before that, the building used to be a steam plant. It transformed into a state-of-the-art laboratory with the space to perform hands-on tactics that will help students prepare for real-world experiences.

The Milton and Doreen Morgan School of Engineering offers six programs, four of which are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). The ABET accreditation ensures that the programs that are provided by the school are of the highest standards from their professionals. The programs that are provided are computer science, computer engineering, software engineering and electrical engineering — all of which are ABET accredited — as well as civil engineering and mechanical engineering.

“A strong engineering program coupled with a little creative thinking is a powerful combination. We look forward to a bright future for Shippensburg University, its students, and the impact they will have on our community, our country, and on the world,” Milton Morgan said.

It will be exciting to see the memories and achievements that will take place in the Milton and Doreen Morgan School of Engineering.
