An editorial by Eddie Pauline, President and CEO

I write in response to the thoughtful guest column published in the Aug. 22 Dispatch by Denison Professor Jeff Kurtz regarding the excitement over Intel’s investment in building advanced chip-making facilities here in central Ohio. While I agree with Kurtz’s point that investment in arts and humanities education is an important part of our success as a state, I also believe his column ignores the benefits STEM can have on a society.
