Tech received the “Innovation” award from the Association of Public Land Grant Universities (APLU) for its technology-based focus in its economic development efforts. Tech’s Enterprise Innovation Institute (EI2), its key statewide business outreach and economic development arm, is a critical component of those efforts, as well as commercialization of inventions, and other initiatives. The award follows APLU’s designation of Tech as an Innovation and Economic Prosperity University earlier this summer.

An APLU award is not significant. The only place you'll find this announcement is at APLU and the awarded institution's Press Release department. Chef gets excited about any award, no matter how insignificant.

I thought you said that you went to Tech? Something doesn't make sense here. Did you do your undergrad there (and spend time on campus), or were you just there for the MBA program?

If it is the latter, then that would explain quite a bit.
