Hey everyone! It’s Anson, hope you all had a great Halloween and are enjoying the colours of the fall!

November is a pretty great month for co-op and academic-related news. Matches from the main Jobmine round should have come out; if you are happily matched, congratulations! If not, fear not: the Engineering Society is hosting a Career Fair on November 5 in the E5 Student Design Center. Employers such as MMM Group, Clearpath Robotics, Armtec and more will be here to recruit students for both co-op and full-time opportunities. Raffles for some neat electronics will be held throughout the day, and in general it will be a fun and network-ful time. We hope to see you there!

Look out as well for some prize draws for those who have submitted recently to the Exam Bank. If you haven’t yet uploaded an exam, you still have time to do so, before we give away 2 Cineplex movie tickets on November 15th! Each exam sent to exambank@engsoc.uwaterloo.ca will count for a raffle entry, and each solution set will count for another.

I will be meeting with the directors of the WatPD program in the upcoming weeks, to discuss improvements to PD and bring forward the student perspective. If you have any insight on how you would like PD to change, send me a message before November 10, and I will bring it to people who can effectively use the feedback.

Lastly, nominations for the EngSoc Teaching Excellence Award are open until November 18! If you are interested in recognizing a professor, teaching assistant or lab instructor for outstanding teaching, look in your uWaterloo email for a message from Robin Jardin regarding the award and nomination link.

Told you November was a busy month. As always, look out for blurbs in the weekly EngSoc emails and website regarding more details on academic goings-on. Thank you, and see you next time!
