Coffee and Donuts

IEEE Twin Cities Section members gathered to enjoy coffee and some high-zoot (as per Eric) goodies last Saturday morning. It was an enjoyable get-together.

Minnesota library book is returned after 100 years.

A Few Notes

Hello! You may have noticed that in addition to website pages we now have blog posts. This should (in principle) help to keep site content fresh. (It’s always interesting though, right?) If you are interested in contributing posts, please get in touch with me using the “Contact Us” link in the top menu bar.

There are quite a few virtual meetings taking place this week, so check out the full list here. The one on career happiness (November 15) should be interesting. And if you are a hobbyist, how about this one?

Even better, come to our webinar on Thursday, November 16, when Jack will talk about FORTH-like compilers. You can apply for 1 PDH (Professional Development Hour) after attending!

Oh! You can also take a peek at the IEEE Region 4 Q3 newsletter here.

And finally, you can comment on the posts! Click the comment icon below the heading to add your comment.

Coffee Hour Follow-Up

We had an enjoyable coffee-hour. About 15 people attended and introduced themselves. Since everyone was meeting each other for the first time, the conversation started slowly but became animated and stimulating quite quickly. The event went well so we are going to hold another coffee hour next month. Do join us for that one.
