Wilmington, Del. —
Joe Cunning plans to retire as executive director of the National Textile Center's University Research Consortium. He will continue in the post until it is filled, and will remain a consultant to the NTC.
During his tenure, NTC grew from four to eight members and increased its annual budget from $7 million to $10 million, said Fred Cook, NTC board chairman.
"We sincerely thank Dr. Cunning for his superb leadership over the past 11 years," he said. "While he will be greatly missed, we honor his desire to spend more time with his family and other endeavors."
The NTC is comprised of eight core universities: Auburn, Clemson, Cornell, Georgia Tech, Philadelphia, North Carolina State, California-Davis and Massachusetts-Dartmouth. Founded in 1990, the NTC's mission is to enhance the knowledge base of the domestic fiber and fiber products industry.
