Van B. Honeycutt, Computer Sciences Corp.’s chairman, president and chief executive, gained a new title last week: chairman of the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee.
After announcing Honeycutt’s appointment in a Washington ceremony, Defense Secretary William Cohen gave the Los Angeles executive a symbolic gavel. Honeycutt has served on the committee since April 1995 and will take over from Charles R. Lee, GTE Corp.’s chairman and chief executive.
