Five Hamilton High School students attended the 2011 PDS Technology Conference Sept. 15 at the Frontier Airlines Center in Milwaukee. Seniors Brittany Paa, Riley Feldman, Zachary Geis, Timothy Jansen and Clinton Lampshire were accompanied by Hamilton business education teacher Toni Hillmann.

 

Attendees heard from keynote speaker Malcolm Gladwell, a staff writer for the New York Times, who discussed the importance of technology in the changing world. Gladwell is the bestselling author of “The Tipping Point,” “Blink” and “Outliers” and was named one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People. Students also attended breakout sessions and visited exhibit booths that featured local technology companies and products.
