The UW-Madison chapter of Pi Tau Sigma, a national honor society for top juniors and seniors in mechanical engineering, hosted the 2001 Pi Tau Sigma National Convention November 2-4 at the Monona Terrace Convention Center. More than 250 students from 74 schools attended the event. The convention theme, "Proud of the Past, Committed to the Future," was especially fitting, as the Madison chapter is one of the co-founders of the 86-year-old organization. College of Engineering Dean Emeritus John G. Bollinger (right) was the keynote speaker for the convention banquet. You can read more about this conference and the student effort that went into planning it in the next issue of Perspective, due out next month.
