Send Us Your News

If you have information of interest to IEEE Kansas City Section members, please send that to the Publications Officer (writer @ ieee.org). Here are some examples of what we're looking for:

News pertaining to individual IEEE members of all grades, including students:

  • Obituaries
  • Awards, promotions, appointments, honors
  • Notable achievements
  • "Looking for work"--send a paragraph explaining what you do and how to reach you.

News to benefit other members

  • Technical seminars that are open to Section members
  • New courses
  • Job openings
    •

There is no "deadline." Just send information as you get it, and the Publications Officer will add it to the next eNL (if the item is appropriate and if space permits--and space nearly always permits).

Thought for the Day

The more steps you have in a process, the more time-consuming and error-prone it will be.
