Newsday, News 12 Long Island, USA Today and Pacific Maritime
This spring the Webb program and Webb students have generated press stories that have appeared across the U.S.
On Long Island, Webb was celebrated in Newsday, with an anniversary piece on the historical move of Webb Institute from the Bronx to its “new home” on the property of the former Herbert Pratt estate. While on local T.V. one of our incoming students, Samantha Griswold, was celebrated as a News Twelve Long Island Scholar Athlete. Her interview can be viewed here: Samantha Griswold - Bay Shore High School
With each spring comes college selection time for the nation’s high school seniors and stories of colleges offering outstanding financial opportunities and value appear in many publications. USA Today recently published this tribute to real value colleges which starts the story off with Webb:http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2010-04-06-tuitionfree06_ST_N.htm
The last link is to a wonderful story written by Jay Carson ‘73, for publication in Pacific Maritime Magazine describing Webb and the Webb graduates’ contributions to the maritime industry in the Pacific Northwest.
