Rita Breen, Psy 90 MS IE 92

Chair of the Alumni Association

Favorite building:
“SAC. It was a place to unwind and get rid of stress! It also helped me to pay for my education. When I learned that GT/SAC had no recreational fitness classes, I met with Kirk McQueen, who ran intramurals, and offered to start a program. He agreed but didn’t have the capacity to promote it and instead, offered to pay me for each student I recruited. I made sure the classes were full! It was a new revenue stream for SAC, and it covered my tuition.”

Tommy Herrington, IM 82

Past chair, chair of Finance

Favorite building: “The old athletic dining hall that was tucked under the East Stands of Bobby Dodd Stadium until 1981. It was my favorite spot because it was an all-you-can-eat refuge, where one could decompress from the rigors of the daily grind.”

Jimmy Mitchell, CE 05

Chair-elect, vice chair of Roll Call

Favorite building: “As a student, it was Bobby Dodd. But now, as a civil engineer graduate, it is The Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design because I was fortunate to be a lead for building it, thanks to my 20-year career in construction for Skanska. Without a doubt, that is my favorite building on campus both because I was involved and know everything about it and because it is one of the best examples of sustainable design and construction in the world.”

Sam Westbrook, IE 99

Vice chair of the Executive Committee

Favorite building: “Bobby Dodd Stadium. It’s where some of my best memories were made. I love that it’s in downtown Atlanta, the tradition, and excitement of the games, and most importantly, there were no exams or failed classes there.”

Meredith Moot, Mgt 08

Favorite building: “You cannot beat Tech Tower. It’s absolutely iconic and such a special part of the Atlanta skyline. We certainly make a statement to the city and world.”

Alex Muñoz, Mgt 88

Favorite building: “The old Management Building (across the street from what was known as the SAC). I have lots of great memories of classes with Dr. Willie Belton.”

Amy Phuong, IA 05, MBA 14

Favorite building: “Skiles Walkway. It was my favorite ‘building’ to bump into friends and catch some fresh air in between classes and club meetings. I also spent a lot of time at the Student Center.”
$altText Kenji Takeuchi, ME 94

Kenji Takeuchi, ME 94

Favorite building: “I have many fond memories of SAC and SAC fields, where I would regularly blow off steam with friends, participate in intramural sports, exercise, and get short relief from the countless study sessions.”
