Nixy said:Yeah I'd say doing it is a good idea, networking in FABULOUS. I only started getting involved last year (3rd year of a 4 year program...) I met SO many people though and now this year I'm on two councils, one of them I am co-organizing an entire day for highschool girls to come and learn about engineering...also involved in various other groups for design competitions and conferences
