Dennis Staley
- BS Metallurgical Engineering 1957
Dennis Staley '57 was the first in his family to attend college. He chose Michigan
Tech, and he's never regretted the decision. After earning his bachelor's degree in
metallurgical and materials engineering, he spent most of his career in the energy
industry with Panhandle Eastern Corporation in Houston.
This man of few words sums up his Tech education as excellent, his guiding philosophy
as honesty, and the key to his success being hard work. "I grew up on a farm. I know
what it takes to get an education and succeed. You've got to work."
