What is the distinguished member program?

The Distinguished Member Program is a way to reward active members of IIE with recognition and financial discounts on events.

  • Your name on the IIE website identifying you as a distinguished member Employers will see this!
  • $5 Discount on BeersBall (an annual Spring IIE event)
  • A printed certificate recognizing your achievement
  • New for 2008 - All Freshman and Sophomore distinguished members will be reimbursed for their annual IIE dues

How do I become an IIE distinguished member?

Throughout a semester, point totals are accumulated for each registered UW-Madison IIE member.  Members receive points for attending various events, and an individual’s points are kept by the IIE officer board.  The point allocation system is described below: 

One point:  Attending a general/committee meeting or event, a company presentation, or a social 

One point:  Each hour worked at a volunteer event (volunteering events include hockey game concession sales, outreach events, EXPO stand volunteering, ICE stand volunteering, Career Connection volunteering, and any other hourly events) (limit 3 points per event) 

Two points: Attending an IIE-sponsored visit to a company

Three points: Attending the IIE Regional Conference or writing a published semester IIE newsletter article 

Five points:  Giving a technical paper presentation at Regional Conference 

Six points:  Attending the IIE National Conference  

At the end of the semester Distinguished Member status is achieved if a regular member is in the top one-third by total number of points.  These members will then be listed on the IIE website for the entire upcoming semester, and given a printed certificate for their achievements.  Maintaining an actively participating officer position within IIE facilitates Distinguished Member status.
