Seattle - Michigan Tech Alumni & Friends

04/07/2026

We didn’t just earn degrees—we learned how to think. How to solve complex problems. How to work through uncertainty with others who were just as committed to figuring things out.

That experience shaped far more than a career. It shaped how we show up in the world.

“Give Back to the Pack” is one way we carry that forward—ensuring today’s students have access to the same kind of challenging, hands-on, community-driven education that defined our time in Houghton.

If Michigan Tech played a role in your journey, consider making a gift. I encourage you to consider what impacted you during your time at Tech - you can designate your gift to departments, to scholarships, student activities, or programs that helped shape your own experience at Tech.

Once a Husky, always a Husky.
