March 2012 Newsletter

Aloha!

I'm honored that Al asked me to take over this publication, and that
John has appointed me our Section PACE Chair. I look forward to
serving our Section and to hearing from members. Please let me know
how we can improve communication, enhance services, and foster
activities.

After two decades away from home, I'm very happy to be back in
Hawaii, living again in the town where I grew up. You can't beat
working with technology in paradise!

Please feel free to send your Chapter announcements and other
newsletter items directly to me for inclusion in our next update.

the official one:

Mission Statement IEEE's core purpose is to foster technological
innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity.

Vision Statement IEEE will be essential to the global technical
community and to technical professionals everywhere, and be
universally recognized for the contributions of technology and of
technical professionals in improving global conditions.

We want to bring our members together to incorporate their personal
goals into this vision leveraging the very considerable support
available from having the largest professional organization in the
world. There will be a short presentation by each member of a panel
followed by a QA session after the presentations. There are also
sign up sheets after the panel to indicate your preference so that
we can establish points of contact.
