John Santi Receives Triangle's Distinguished Alumni Citation 

John Santi was presented with Triangle's Distinguished Alumni Citation at the recent Marquette Triangle Chapter's Founders Day Dinner on April 20th, 2013.

Santi’s career with Briggs & Stratton spans nearly fifty years and includes nearly fifty patents. He has been described as “a tenacious and gifted inventor” as he excelled throughout his career improving small gasoline engine efficiency. Santi received Marquette’s Engineering Service Award in 1994 and All-University Service Award in 1999.

John also has received the Luminaries of Marquette Engineering award. The description of this award is as follows:

 "For over 100 years, Marquette's College of Engineering has graduated engineers that have made significant contributions to the engineering profession and society through their innovations, accomplishments, and leadership. As a tribute to these successful graduates, Marquette alumni and friends were asked to nominate distinguished alumni, or Luminaries of Marquette Engineering. A selection committee comprised of ten alumni, faculty and staff, were charged with the difficult task of selecting the luminaries from a pool of more than 300 illustrious nominations."
