St. Louis area professional persons are sought for visits with mechanical engineering students. We would like to have informal group discussions to give the students more insight on what to expect after graduation. We would like to set up visits between senior members and student sections at SLU, SIUE, SIUC, or Missouri S&T between February and April 2010. If you would like to help and be one of the senior section members to make one or more of the visits, please call our chairperson, John Keplinger.
