The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Ohio University student branch has resurrected the formerly famous IEEE Winter Banquet! The banquet will be hosted in the rotunda of Walter Hall on Tuesday, March 9th from 5:00 to 7:00 PM.
Charles Alexander, author of our infamous EE 101 textbook, will deliver a presentation entitled "Engineering in the 21st Century"; William Timmons, a successful engineer and entrepreneur, will give a talk on "Engineering Entrepreneurship". In addition, awards for "Student Choice" EE and CS professors will be handed out during the event. These awards are given based on a student poll.
A wholesome dinner (more than your money's worth) provided by Baker catering will be served during the event. Door prizes will be awarded at random. Suggested dress is business casual. Tickets, $6 for students and $8 for faculty, will be on sale Friday afternoons near or in the ARC atrium; alternative ways to buy tickets will be in place soon. Please contact August Engstrom at AE25...@ohio.edu for up-to-date information on ways to purchase tickets. These tickets MUST be purchased in advance. For other questions, contact the event coordinator and fearless leader Sonja Abbey at SA11...@ohio.edu.
