February 2016 President’s Report
Happy February! While this is a month to celebrate St.
Valentine and our country’s Presidents, February is also
our month with National Engineering Week starting this
Sunday February 21. On the National side, this week is
about celebrating how engineers make a difference in our
world, increasing public dialogue about the need for
engineers and bringing engineering to life for kids,
educators and parents. Locally we have an outstanding set
of traditions that if you haven’t ever experienced, you are
missing out on the best part of February. Unlike the social events we attend the rest of the
year, this week’s events are tailored to our [geeky] tastes and a time when we are in the
spotlight so jokes about Calculus, design parameters and so forth are completely
appropriate and expected (don’t worry – I don’t tell jokes well so no worries about suffering
through them at the awards banquet.)
So if you are looking for a great morning, afternoon, or evening out, try MathCounts where
we support students and their math skills, the Joint Society Luncheon where we have the
opportunity to listen to Dr. Bryce Rutter on “Innovation & Design: Every Detail Matters” or
our local Awards Banquet which is a great fun evening of socializing with fellow Engineers
and get to celebrate the outstanding Engineering accomplishments of our awards winners.
Finally, sometime at the Science Center at the end of Engineering week is not to be missed
with exhibits about new and cool things going on in Engineering. I hope each of you takes
some time out to enjoy Engineering Week and all the different ways to spend a few minutes
recognizing the contributions we make to society and the ways society needs each of us and
our skills. You will find the details for each of the events inside this month’s newsletter.
Sincerely,
Kathy French, P.E.
