I hope you are all enjoying this beautiful weather in the first week of November. I would like to let you know about some events TAMUite has coming up in the next week.
Professor Appreciation Potluck
The annual professor appreciation potluck gathering will be held this Saturday (November 7) at 3:00 PM at the University Apartments Community Center. We have sent a couple of e-mails out already about this event and many of you have responded and volunteered to bring some food to share. If you are planning to come and bring food, please let Susan Paulus know what you are bringing (e-mail: spauluscm@aol.com). If you do not have time to cook, or you are like me and do not cook very well, I suggest picking up a bag of chips or other snacks from the store on your way to the potluck. Please let me know if you need a ride or more information.
General Meeting November 10
Our next general meeting is one week from today, Tuesday, November 10. Our guest speaker will be Rachel Hayden, P.E., President of Hayden Consulting. The topic of the presentation will be "Starting Your Own Consulting Firm." The presentation will focus on the opportunities and challenges of starting your own transportation consulting firm and some of the projects Hayden is currently working on. I encourage all of you to attend, particularly if you are interested in starting your own consulting firm during your career. Free sandwiches from Potbelly will be served. Please join us next Tuesday at 5:30 PM in CE Room 118.
