CEE Book Club Update!

Hi everyone,

The books are finally in and distributed to our members! Our meeting times for this month will be:
Thursday, 11/4, 11am-12pm in Mason 2117
  • Read chapters 1-3 (if you can!)
Thursday, 11/18, 11am-12pm in Mason 2117
  • Read chapters 3-6 (if you can!)
If you want to attend virtually please send me and email and I’ll send you a Bluejeans link day-of. The room isn’t equipped for online meetings so if most of us could attend in person (if possible) that would be great!
During the first meeting, we will decide what to do for the remainder of the reading schedule – I’m guessing it might be best to read this book November – January and start our Spring semester club in February. That’ll give us plenty of time to order the book for Spring as well, in case we have more backordering issues. We’ll vote on it and decide what we want to do together.
Know someone who wants to join book club? Have them send me an email! ? (mariawarren@gatech.edu)
Still need to pick up your book? Come by Mason 4132 from 3:30-4:30 today to get your book from Hana. You can also come to Mason 3141 on Mondays from 11:00-12:00.
Looking forward to seeing you all and discussing the first few chapters!

GAWP Young Professionals Holiday Social

 The GAWP (Georgia Association of Water Professionals) YP committee will be hosting a holiday social at Reformation Brewery in Smyrna. This social is an informal way for YPs to get to know other folks in the industry. It’s usually a good mix of consultants, vendors, and municipality employees. If any students are interested in the water/wastewater industry this a great place to connect.

The last time we had this social (2019) we had a decent turn out of Tech students, and I know there will be some young Tech alum in attendance! I was wondering if y’all could advertise this event to CEE/ASCE/AEES.
