Meeting Topic

We stopped mailing out paper notices to put that money to better use by supporting the SAE student chapters and design teams in our area. This month they will show you everything they have done. Since it is tax season, we also want you remind you that any donations you or your employer make to the teams are tax deductible. There is absolutely no better way to support engineering education and produce stronger engineers! (not to mention marketing on campus or to future engineers)

We'll have a quick report from the judges we sent to the State Science Fair Competition. Then, there will be presentations (Including some of the hardware) from the Formula SAE, Mini Baja, and Super Mileage teams that the Atlanta Section supports. These students are from Southern Polytechnic State University, Georgia Tech and Auburn (including Auburn's Lady Tigers Mini Baja team). We also hope that teams from Mercer and Tuskegee will attend.
We are EXTREAMLY proud of the teams' results last year.
