Our student chapters will be presenting a project that they are working on at our Product Show in April. Please welcome them when you see them there. We will be giving prize (s) away for the student presentation competition. We look forward to seeing our students there.

We will be Forming a local YEA group. YEA stands for Young Engineers in ASHRAE. Our goal is to enable engineers age 35 and under to network with each other and with the older members in our society. ASHRAE is an aging society and we aim to engage our younger engineers, allow them to integrate and get to know the chapter at large, and to enable them to become involved in the society at all levels. The YEA group picks up where our Student Chapters leave off. So as a Student graduates and becomes an engineer, we hope they stay involved in ASHRAE and YEA is a resource there to help them in that transition. We are currently looking to plan some social activities to bring students, YEA members and older members together and can use your help.

The Boston Chapter is looking to expand the student activities committee. We would like to increase the student attendance at our Boston Chapter meetings and our student chapter membership. We need volunteers to visit student chapters and share our knowledge. Anyone with children active in grade school, high school, boy scouts or girl scouts can educate our students, or help scouts earn badges by teaching our children about engineering, energy and/or our environment. If an opportunity comes along, even an opportunity to slip in a fifteen minute speech with Q+A time in front of a class, please let us know and go for it. This activity also helps us to advance our student chapter goals of being active in the student community. We need more champions and our children really are our future!!!

We are looking for volunteers to speak at our existing student chapters.
