Dr, Rose is a graduate of Slippery Rock State College, Westminster College and the University of Pittsburgh, and was previously president of Alfred University in Alfred, New York. Before his presidency at Alfred which lasted five years, Dr. Rose was the deputy assistant secretary for the Department of Defense and Education. Dr. Rose has been dealing with the Educational system dating back over the last 20 years, when he began teaching in public schools in Pennsylvania. Since Pennsylvania the educational system has changed quite a bit. Dr. Rose sees specialization of R.I.T. fs colleges as the trend of today's learning, and seems excited by the educational possibilities at R.i.T.
