message: Proposal to add the following notable alumni; 
Thomas G. Zimmerman – (Class of 1975) - inventor of Virtual Reality PowerGlove and TED Speaker
Argument;
Mr. Zimmerman invented the PowerGlove, which sold over 1 million units in 1987-1988, creating the first wide-spread deployment of a commercial Virtual Reality (VR) system. In 1995 Zimmerman defined the term Personal Area Network (PAN) and invented an electric field PAN to send data through the body. In 2018 he delivered a TED talk on one of his inventions (Microscopic Reality System) which has over 1 million views. He has over 50 patents and is recognized by IBM Research as a Master Inventor, "a privilege and title afforded to IBM inventors who have exhibited sustained invention activity".
