Nicholas Humber '63 Killed Sept. 11
Nicholas Humber '63, of Newton, Mass., an
executive of Enron Wind Corporation, was a passenger aboard
American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the World
Trade Center Sept. 11. Humber earned his bachelor's degree
in mechanical engineering from Rensselaer and received a
master's degree from the Wharton Graduate School at the
University of Pennsylvania. He joined the EPA when it was
founded in 1971. Humber was an adviser to the World Bank,

Several brothers, including Rich Bollam '66, Terry Jones

Humber in September.
The brothers of Theta Chi are encouraging
contributions in Humber's memory to the Delta Chapter Theta
Chi Fraternity Scholarship, which is administered by Rensselaer
and used to support financially needy members of the fraternity.
