Activities

Last Tuesday we sent our first and hopefully final draft of the program curriculum to our advisory board. It has been a big weight lifted off our program development committee's shoulders. Also last week on Wednesday, we attended ICC and presented PowerPoint presentations about IRE and mechanical engineering in general. We spoke to five different classes including two Engineering Professional Development classes, and three Intro. to Engineering classes. The speeches went very well, although there is still room for improvement. T-shirts with our new Iron Range Engineering logo, were given out to those who asked good questions. Last Thursday we volunteered to help beautify the Mesabi campus. We gathered in groups of two and went around picking up stray garbage and trash. As a group, we have been taking workout hours for the past few weeks, playing football and running on our treadmill and elliptical machine. The long awaited deer season is just around the corner and we are all looking forward to spending some time away from the office, in the woods. We are having a big buck contest between the students. There are prizes for the heaviest buck, widest rack, and biggest doe. All in all, it has been very busy last week and everyone will enjoy the time off next week.
