President wrapped up final leg of ride at unique company started by grad
Armed with a degree from Pittsburg State University’s Wood Product Manufacturing program, Bob Holloway (BST ‘04) took a leap of faith in 2010 and started his own business in a small town that doesn’t see many visitors, so he and his business partner, also a Pitt State graduate, were thrilled to open the door to Pitt State President Dan Shipp.
For information on the money raised on Dan's trip across Kansas visit pittstate.edu/danbikesks. To read more about what he did along the way, check out pittstate.edu/gorillaconnection.
