Congressman Richard Hanna was in Binghamton today, to take a tour of Binghamton University.
 
Hanna spoke with Binghamton University President, Harvey Stegner, about BU's expansion downtown, and the upcoming incubator project.
       
While touring the school, Hanna mentioned that the projects at Binghamton University are helping to rebuild the middle class:
     
"If we don't advance science, technology, engineering, and math we will never rebuild the middle class in this country. Binghamton is doing that. Places like Binghamton and BU allow us to be  competitive internationally," said Congressman Richard Hanna.

The incubator projects emphasize green energy and development of high-tech industries in the Tier.
