Month: March 2013

Six members of the SWE-CM Section attended the March 28 – February 2, 2013 SWE Region D Conference in Orlando.  Jennifer Braganza, Rose Mary Seymour, Tolani Owasu, Chris Cathcart, Cheryl Kinchen and Angela Berry all made the 8 hour drive to Orlando.  SWE-CM participants made presentations, attended workshops and tours and attended the SWE business meeting.  The event was capped off with a Masquerade Ball on Saturday night with good food and an opportunity to continue networking with the Collegiate and Professional members in attendance.  Chris Cathcart, Cheryl Kinchen and Angela Berry (l to r in picture) hammed it up in the photo booth at the Masquerade Ball.

We are half way through our joint Citizen Schools Engineering Apprenticeship with NSBE-CAEC.  Please make plans to join us on Thursday, April 25th 6:00 – 8:00 PM (Demonstrations start at 7:00 PM) at Martin Luther King Middle School, 500 Bilmark Avenue – Charlotte, NC 28213 for the students to present what they have learned during their apprenticeship.

You may not have been able to teach a session in the Citizen Schools apprenticeship, but feel free to join as to see the students showcase what they learned during the 10-week apprenticeship about engineering. We really want to have a crowd of support for the students so please attend if you are available. Contact [email protected] for more information.
