Foster Kenneth A. Kim Frank J. Krzystofiak Minakshi Trivedi The Star Spangled Banner Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’ s early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave? By Sir Francis Scott Key, 1779-1843 Vocalist: Amelia Wright, MS Accounting 2011 Musical Accompaniment: UB Brass

He strengthened the size and quality of the engineering faculty, including hiring two members of the National Academy of Engineering.
