Message from the Chair
May 2012 The end of the program year is approaching fast. We have the annual ASME picnic coming up soon on May 19, and we are finishing up the details for the June meeting. This year we are trying something different for the picnic: lunch will be a catered barbecue meal. Of course we all have lots of refreshments and some other goodies to eat. The student section will Provide a presentation on their Human Powered Vehicle entry, which competed in the Human Powered Vehicle Challenge in April. Looking forward to seeing you at the picnic! This has been one of the busiest spring times for the section that I can recall! We had the Flight Safety International. In case you thought about going on the tour but decided not to, all attendees on the Flight Safety tour were allowed to “fly” the Blackhawk helicopter simulator! System modeling was the topic at our most recent dinner meeting. Ed Butzin, president of Wolverine Ventures Inc. showed the attendees how system modeling is performed with NPSS, and how it can be applied to many different engineering disciplines. Thanks Ed! Apart from those section activities, Drew Walsh and I attended the LTC (Leadership Training Conference) in early March and Drew attended the DSS (District F Seminars) in April. Also, all section Executive Committee members have attended several training sessions to see how we can move our section to the next level! Keep an eye out for the emails and make sure you participate! See you at the next meeting!
