ETC Class of 2023
On Sunday May 14, 2023 the ETC honored 91 students as we held the 2023 Diploma Ceremony at Acrisure Stadium . Following dinner, with fellow classmates, family, ETC faculty and the staff, the latest group of ETC alumni received their Master of Entertainment Technology degrees from Carnegie Mellon University.
During the ceremony, this year’s ETC Alumni Award winner Christine Barnes ETC ’11, offered a graduation charge to the ETC class of 2023. The ETC Alumni Award is given to honor an alum who exemplifies leadership and innovation in entertainment technology fields through their engaging and inspiring work.
Concluding the ceremony, The Anne Humprehy’s Memorial Award, The Tornado Award and the Pausch Award are given the the class.
This year’s Anne Humprehy’s Memorial Award was given to Maria Laura Mirabelli. The Anne Humprheys’ Memorial Award is given in honor ETC faculty member Anne Humphreys’ who passed away after a courageous battle with cancer in recognition of Anne’s indomitable character and the fact that she was an inspiration to all who knew her. The award is given to a student who has made the most out of live by living with passion on the moment, and has a focus on community building projects which betters lives for others and in doing so influences others to be positive.
The Tornado Award is given in honor of ETC Co-founder Don Marinelli. The award is given in recognition to the student who goes up against the status quo, the existing parameters and limitations of the entertainment technology industry and makes an impact. The 2023 Tornado recipient was Faris ElRayes.
Shan Jiang was the 2023 recipient of the Pausch Award. The Pausch Award is inspired by and in honor of ETC co-founder Randy Pausch is awarded to the ETC graduate who best epitomizes interdisciplinary leadership through artistic, technical and interpersonal initiative growth and excellence.
