President Adamian also demonstrated a commitment to technology that has had positive lasting effects on our community. In 1984 he announced his intentions to bring "computer fluency" to Bentley to ensure that students, faculty and staff would be well-prepared for the future. 

In 1985 he helped to launch a pilot program wherein freshman students in select programs would receive personal laptops. In the photo at right, President Adamian is seen with two Bentley students and a Portable Vectra CS laptop. By the time this photo was taken in 1987, the laptop program had expanded to all Bentley students, and it continues to this day.
