1 .         General meeting with Motorola

 

Date: Tuesday, February 19, 2008

Time: 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM

Location: 135 MEB

 

Motorola pioneered the realm of smaller cellphones with its Razr (R) -- perhaps one of the best-known cellphones on the market today. Come to this informational seminar as Motorola discusses internship opportunities, international experiences, and more! As always, dinner's on us.

 

 

2.         EOH Committee Meeting

 

Date: Wednesday, February 13th

Time: 7 PM

Location: 135 MEB

 

We are hosting three different exhibits this year for EOH. The first is a resurrection of last year's penny smasher that will punch a Block I into aluminum disks using a machined die and vice. The second is an interactive exhibit of a hydraulic dump truck that will simulate how a truck bed is lifted, and the third is an exhibit about distracted driving that will feature computer simulations requiring participants' attention for both simulated driving and an alternate task.

We will be having weekly EOH meetings for anyone interested in getting involved every Wednesday at 7 PM .

 

3.         General meeting with Whirlpool

Date: March 4, 2008

Time: 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM

Location: TBA (see website for details as they are available)

 

Whirlpool is perhaps best known for its KitchenAid line of kitchen appliances; little known to students is its WERLD program, a leadership development program that is nearly unparalleled in the industry. Come to an informational meeting to learn more about opportunities at Whirlpool and the WERLD program; free smoothies will be served!
