EECS First Systers Luncheon and Elections

EECS held its 7th EECS Systers Luncheon on Wednesday, 31-Aug that included 24 female cadets and 6 faculty. The event, organized by Dr. Suzanne J. Matthews, was designed to bring female students and faculty in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Information Technology together in a casual, relaxing environment. Cadets and faculty alike enjoyed the opportunity to catch up with each other and make new friends. EECS Systers elections were held, and we discussed a number of potential activities for the coming academic year. Our new officers are: CDT Jennifer Niemann ’16 for Chair, CDT Tianna Johnson ’19 for Vice Chair, and CDT Emily Guevara ’19 for treasurer. We plan to hold a similar luncheon later this semester. EECS Systers is USMA’s chapter of the Association of Computing Machinery’s Council on Women in Computing.
