Savannah Tech Receives Patent for Historic Marker Collar

Congratulations to the pioneering students at Savannah Technical College’s Historic Preservation Department on receiving a patent for their creation of a historic marker collar bracket. If you’ve been to Savannah, chances are you’ve seen historical markers dotting the City’s cobblestone squared and tree-lined streets. The new collar bracket makes historical markers more efficient and inexpensive to repair in the event of damage or needing replacement.

T&H CEO Sam McCachern is the Past Chair of the STC Foundation Board of Trustees and is quoted in the article on the lasting legacy the patent will have on Savannah Tech students. Read more in the Savannah Morning News.
