  Pender Island Bc
Pender Island is a small island located in the Strait of Georgia, roughly between the cities of Vancouver and Victoria, in British Columbia.
Pender Island is approximately 34 square kilometers in area and is home to about 2,200 permanent residents, as well as a large seasonal population.
Pender Island actually consists of two islands, North Pender Island and South Pender Island, which are separated by a narrow canal originally dredged in 1903 and later connected by a one lane bridge in 1955.

 The Harold Pender Award
Harold Pender was the first Dean of the University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Electrical Engineering, a position he held from the founding of the School in 1923 until his retirement in 1949.
Dean Pender's academic career began in 1909 when he was appointed Professor of Electrical Engineering and Head of the Laboratories at MIT.
He was author or co-author of five technical books in the fields of electromagnetic field and circuit theory and in electrical machinery, and his various editions of Pender's Handbook for Electrical Engineers were known to practically all electrical engineers over several generations.

 Penn engineering to honor UNIX co-creators Dennis Ritchie and Kenneth Thompson with Pender Award
The Harold Pender Award is named for the late founding dean of Penn's Moore School of Electrical Engineering.
Under Pender's direction, the Moore School constructed a differential analyzer for use in solving problems in power and ballistics, leading to the 1946 development of ENIAC.
Pender's own distinguished research career involved basic experimental studies of electric and magnetic fields and applied research in electrical power, a significant societal problem at the turn of the century.

Pender is the surname of Harold Pender, the University of Pennsylvania’s Moore School of Electrical Engineering Dean under whose leadership the general-purpose electronic digital computer was invented.
As for the connection with that other Pender – the engineering dude – well, all if not most members of Pender the band own, or have at one time operated, a computer.
Pender’s a gathering of influences of country through punk rock, 80’s synth to brit pop beats, and a side of grunge for good measure served on unpretentious white paper plates.

 History: Sloan School of Management: Institute Archives & Special Collections: MIT
The Alfred P. Sloan School of Management began in 1914 as Course XV, Engineering Administration, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, within the Department of Economics and Statistics.
The concept of providing business training in the academic environment was gaining popularity in the early 1910s and the idea of an engineering administration or a business engineering program at MIT was promoted by several faculty members including Professor Harold Pender of the Department of Electrical Engineering.
Pender envisioned that the course would be taught in conjunction with engineering courses.
