Forward: Very Impressed!

Ron,

My compliments to you and your staff at Iron Range Engineering.

Just attended the closeout presentation on the Filter Bag Wash system that was designed by six of your students. They did an outstanding job. The design, experiment, and validation were of higher quality that many efforts I've seen from paid engineering consultants.

I am extremely impressed .

I have invited the students to come back in January and present to our senior leadership team. You are welcome to come along if this works for you. I will send info on time and date later.

Thanks for the work you're doing to prepare these students for industry.

GE Challenge

We (the GE challenge group) had our presentation to GE on November 19th. I think I can speak for all of us when I say it went well. We had spent weeks preparing and received lots of positive feedback. It was a great weight lifted off our shoulders and we are all excited to hear the results of the competition on December 5th.
The competition was a great learning activity. I thought it was fun to see our designs actually implemented into their manufacturing plant. It was definitely a worthwhile experience.
