Fox Valley Technical College received a donation Monday that will help welding students further their careers. Walker-Forge and Precision Thermal Processing donated a large piece of heat treating and testing equipment to the college's welding program. About one-third of students now work for the companies.
 
"It really has provided the educational lifeline to our ability to succeed," said Richard Recktenwald, President of Walker Forge and Precision Thermal Processing.
 
The testing equipment will help students see the quality of their weld from the inside out.
