2018 SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENT
Fiber Optic 1-2-3 Training Course

Congratulations to Tom Roberson of City Computer. Tom applied for and received PANGAEA Internet’s $750 scholarship to attend a 4-day Fiber Optic 1-2-3 training course this month.

Prior scholarship recipient, T.J. Byers says this about his current career, “I left my job at the Facebook Data Center back in May of 2017 to pursue a new opportunity. I was hired directly to work for the Data Center Management team of Amerisourcebergen, a pharmaceutical distribution/wholesale company. I am responsible for the daily operations of the Charlotte Data Center. I am also involved with building out our Visual Data Center and have been on the team that set up our remote monitoring for our sites. I am also responsible for scheduling Preventative Maintenance for our cooling units and UPS systems.

The course that I took with the assistance of your organization is a huge reason as to why I am where I am today.”

PANGAEA Public Wi-Fi is available in many downtown areas of Polk & Rutherford counties including Harmon Field and Lake Lure Beach. Since 2015, more than 850,000 users have accessed the free public networks.
