B-Soc Engineers:
Thanks to everyone who supported me during my campaign and the election. A special thanks to Trevor Jenkins and Drew Lemcke, whose ideas I plan to steal adopt. Hopefully, I will exceed your expectations and git’r’done.
I have two main priorities I would like to develop before we start again in summer. Firstly, many people have approached me regarding PD Eng. I wanted to reiterate that abandoning the PD Eng program is at the sole discretion of the dean, and requests of that nature should be directed appropriately. What I can and will do is examine the worst aspects and do everything I can to fix them. So send me the worst parts, whether it is policies, guidelines or specific assignments and how you would fix them, and I’ll see what I can do to get your solutions implemented as soon as possible.
Secondly, I would like to bring back student workshops. Student workshops are an opportunity to learn non-engineering skills from peers and experts. Whether it is presentation skills, writing cover letters, or underwater basket-weaving, let me know if you have a special skill and we’ll see if we can make a workshop for it. Furthermore, if there is a workshop you would like to see, let me know and I will do my best to find an expert in the field.
I am also working with Sasha to continue working on co-op fees, midterm guidelines and other issues, so I will keep you posted. If you want to get more involved in EngSoc, but are not quite sure how, make sure you talk to your executives to see which directorship would be the right fit for you.
If you have any other academic concerns, you can contact me any time at ahogevee@engmail.uwaterloo.ca. I look forward to working with you and the other execs to serve Engsoc B as best as possible and I look forward to a great 16 months.
