2016 Tau Beta Pi Distinguished Alumnus recipient Eugene M. DeLoatch, Ph.D. (DC A ’59), was recently profiled by The Baltimore Sun in an op-ed piece. Dr. DeLoatch is retiring this year as the dean of the Morgan State University College of Engineering. He has been the dean since the school’s founding more than 30 years ago and “is credited with producing more black engineers than any other individual in the history of American higher education.”

As part of CNN’s series “Declassified,” America’s supersecret Hexagon spy satellites were profiled. “These were much better pictures than Google Earth,” Phil Pressel (NY E ’59) told CNN. Pressel was a top engineer at Perkin-Elmer, designer and builder of Hexagon’s cameras.
According to the article, the images and satellites played a role in protecting the United States during the Cold War. Each satellite was the size of a school bus and weighed 30,000 pounds. They created photos showing 370-mile swaths of the planet. From 100 miles in orbit, those pictures clearly showed objects as small as 2 feet wide. “I honestly think that the Hexagon program was responsible for preventing World War III,” Pressel said.
