MIT Will Delve Into U.S. Manufacturing Crisis -- MIT President Susan Hockfield has established a team that will work over the next two-and-a-half years to produce a non-academic book that is intended to highlight the importance of manufacturing to the U.S. economy and outline a strategy that puts the United States back into global competition.

Members of the group involved in the MIT Commission on Production in the Innovation Economy include 17 MIT professors from across academic disciplines including economics, engineering, chemistry, nuclear physics, biotechnology, political science and business. John Reed, chairman of the MIT Corp. and retired CEO of Citigroup and former chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, is also on the committee.       Click here for full article featured in Manufacturing News by Richard McCormack.

Alexander Hamilton

"Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufacturers. Every nation ... ought to endeavor to possess within itself all the essentials of a national supply. They comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and defense ... The expediency of encouraging manufactures in the United States, which was not long since deemed very questionable, appears at this time to be pretty generally admitted."    -- Alexander Hamilton ... an American Made Hero!
