April 27, 2012

Students encouraged by industry insider

Drawing upon decades of experience in the automobile industry and an ongoing "Cars are fun!" enthusiasm for classic vehicles, a former General Motors executive told Penn College students Friday that they are entering a solid career at a time of unprecedented opportunity. "Whether it's the body, engine or transmission, technology is going to come at you hard, fast and furious," Darwin E. Clark told a mix of automotive and collision repair majors and faculty in a College Avenue Labs classroom. "There will be such an explosion of technology, accelerated at a pace that will put a serious strain on the system – unless you have the skill set to keep up."
