Throwback Thursday Photo: Aerospace Club

September 10, 2015

Today's photo dates to 1973 and was originally published in The Campus Slate student newspaper as part of a story about clubs and activities at NYIT. The photo shows members of NYIT's former Aerospace Club. In the spring 1973 semester, they engineered a glider and successfully flew it on the Old Westbury campus. 

Every Thursday, Social Media Strategist Brylee Kaye teams with The Box to share a retro photo for #TBT (aka Throwback Thursday), a popular hashtag campaign on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

This content is part of The Box's "60 Years in 60 Days" series in celebration of NYIT's 60th anniversary in 2015.
