VOLUNTEERS
Please help the section and volunteer your time. There are
several openings including Secretary/Treasurer and Awards
and Recognition Chair.
Urgently needed are volunteers for Society activities. The
Computer and Signal Processing societies have had few
meetings this year. If you would like to give your time and
energy, these societies will accept volunteers for Co-Chairs
and other officer positions. The Power Engineering Society
also needs your help.
Send and email to the section chair.
or call (561) 375-8079.
MEETINGS
Meetings are open to both members and non-members. Please
take some time out of your busy schedule and come to one
meeting. Bring your spouse or a colleague from work. There
is generally no charge, except for tutorials and credit
courses. Please post meeting invitations at work; print a
copy of this eBulletin and distribute to colleagues.
