Former Durham Tech staff member Edward Moore received an honorary associate degree in Applied Science in Business Administration from Durham Tech at the College’s May 7, 2024, Commencement ceremony.
Moore spent much of his work life at Durham Tech, and his years of service helped set precedent for future growth of the school’s footprint and student body.

When I started in 1972, the College had two buildings — White and Collins. The growth in facilities and student body has been incredible,” Moore said. “In all my years and different appointments, I enjoyed myself immensely. I had a passion for the diversity of our student body.”
