Yokogawa gift to UWG

June 2, 2005

CARROLLTON, GA - The Yokogawa Corporation of America, headquartered in Newnan, made a recent gift-in-kind to the University of West Georgia Foundation, Inc. for use by the College of Arts and Sciences. Jeff Rainey (r), product specialist – TMI Division, and Bill Gatheridge, product manager – Test & Measurement Division, were instrumental in Yokogawa’s generous donation valued at more than $12,000. The donation included a digital power analyzer, a portable oscillographic recorder, and a powerpoint presentation and workbook on Power Measurement and Analysis. UWG Honors students have already used the oscillographic recorder in a project chosen to be tested by NASA in its Reduced Gravity Student Flight Opportunities Program.
