February 1, 2008To Whom It May Concern:

I had the honor of having David Rowan in two of my classes at ITT Technical Institutewhile he was in pursuit of his degree. David has shown repeatedly that he is skilled ininformation technology, and is a voracious learner. He was consistently early for class,completed his assignments on time, and regularly contributed to class with questions,

comments and personal insight.Towards the end of my Linux administration class, David showed himself to be a valuedmember of a group project he was a part of, through teamwork with other students and

effective time management.David showed me he is very serious about his career in information technology. He is a

grounded individual who has a reliable personality and ability to embrace an everchanging IT field. I heartily recommend David in his professional endeavors.
