[Ewb-list] Working on Bolivia

08 Jun '10

Hey everyone, I hope your all having a great summer! As many of you already know, the project implementation was pushed back to December after a conference call with our Professional Mentor and our Project Manager at EWB-USA. There is a lot of work that has to be done before school starts so we're going to work on it every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 7PM to 8PM EST starting next week. We can meet at the GEP office in CIVL 1259 the first week and move it depending on what the group wants. If you are not at Purdue and want to work on it with us, please join us on Skype by adding "Purdue Engineers Without Borders" to your contacts or send me an email. I hope the rest of your summer goes great! More people working on this will mean a better design and speedier delivery of a water system to Papachacra! Thanks, Alex ___________________ Alexander Day EWB-Purdue, President GEP, Student Aid

[Ewb-list] FW: EWB Indiana State Chapter Meeting
by Day, Alexander K 29 Apr '10

29 Apr '10

Hi guys, The Indy Chapter has postponed the meeting Saturday to this Fall. Alex ___________________________________________________________ Alexander Day President, Engineers Without Borders Undergraduate Student Aid, Global Engineering Program Purdue University Civil Engineering Building, Room 1259 daya(a)purdue.edu<mailto:daya@purdue.edu> From: Mike Cline [mailto:MCline@hwcengineering.com] Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:01 PM To: Jeannie Sego; Tim Staub; Day, Alexander K; Giranddz(a)rose-hulman.edu; bs106(a)evansville.edu Cc: Brian_Brown(a)URSCorp.com; amoore(a)vsengineering.com; Andrew Olson; kenneth.rabbers(a)parsons.com Subject: RE: EWB Indiana State Chapter Meeting Folks Looks like we will need to reschedule this State EWB Chapter meeting to this fall. I appreciate all the advance planning work Jeannie and the IUPUI Student Chapter has done to date on this, but the responses seem to show that there are too many conflicting activities going on this weekend to get a good turn-out. Instead, we will hold a break-out session for the Indiana EWB Chapters sometime during this fall's EWB Great Lakes Workshop - which will be hosted by IUPUI here in Indy November 19th through the 21st. Many of you will likely be attending anyway and the idea was to have you either come in late that Friday afternoon early and have us do our collaboration for a couple of hours before the EWB Workshop activities that evening (the Indy Professional Chapter will spring for pizzas). If Jeannie can get a room at IUPUI starting at 5pm - we can roll right into the Workshop activities later that night. So circle Friday, November 19th on your calendars and bring as many of your chapter members as you can! We will get out an agenda for that meeting when we get closer to that date. Also - the USA-EWB has asked me to start having monthly conference calls with all of the Student Chapter Presidents participating once you get back into school session this fall. Most of this will be to pass on news from the Region and National and see what your Chapters issues or needs may be. Please let me know who your Chapter officers will be and their contact info starting in September if it is not you folks. Apologies for the re-schedule.
