Thank You Notes From Our Students:

To Whom It May Concern:

On behalf of the University of Cincinnati SEAoO Student Chapter and all students in attendance, we would like to thank all professionals for your participation in this year’s Student Mentoring Night.  We all enjoyed networking with you and the advice we received. Thank you for making this year’s event a success. Based upon the feedback that I have received, everyone was thrilled with this year’s event. Both students young and old were thrilled with this event.

We would specifically like to thank Garrett Dunn, Antonio Verne, and Phil Niekamp for their excellent presentations. All three presentations provided tons of advice and inspiration to students. The presentations put the exclamation point on the night. Above all, we would like to thank Mindy Barber, our student chapter advisor, for her help in organizing the event.

We greatly appreciate everyone who participated in this year’s Student Mentoring Night. We hope to see you at next year’s Student Mentoring Night!

To whom it may concern:

On behalf of SEAoO-OSU I would like to say thank you to those who participated in this year’s Mentoring Night. The event was a tremendous success thanks in large part to everyone that was there lending insight, wisdom, or just socializing with our younger, future engineers.

By means of specific mention I would like to especially thank the presenters, Dale Schiefer and Antonio Verne, for the time they devoted to this event in travel and in preparing their respective presentations. Seeing abstract engineering projects shows that there is a lot more to structural engineering than just codes and tables. I would also like to thank Matt Inkrott and Fae Garstang for their time in helping us coordinate the event. Additionally, a special thank you goes to the Ohio Contractor’s Association for kindly allowing us to use their facility for our meeting.

Lastly, I would like to thank our advisors, Carrie Bremer and Bernie Kooi, for their continual support of our younger members as we attempt to bridge the gap between what we learn in school and what it takes to be a practicing structural engineer.

As mentioned before, we greatly appreciate everyone that participated in Mentoring Night, making it the great success that is was. Every interaction we have with the professional engineering world and those that run it makes joining the workforce a less daunting task and more of an exciting, attainable goal. We hope to see you at next year’s Mentoring Night!
