9th Annual AAUW- Rockland Secondary School Engineering Conference

The Conference was held on November 7th at the King’s Daughters Library in Garnerville. The event hosted over 120 people, including students from 10 of the county’s high schools, teachers and guidance counselors and engineers who served as panel guests. County Legislator, Toney
Earl honored the panelists with commendations for their service to the youth of our community and NYS Society of Professional Engineers President, Tom Broderick was on hand to discuss engineering scholarship opportunities and the upcoming Engineering Expo.

The seventh annual Engineering Conference for High School Students was held at the Nanuet Library.

As usual, it was hosted by AAUW and the New York Society of Professional Engineers, Rockland Chapter.  The conference was organized and run by the STEM Program Subcommittee for Engineering, AAUW Rockland Chapter.  This conference was dedicated to the memory of our subcommittee’s former Chair, Dr. Renee Brilliant Donn, who passed away earlier this year.  She was the driving force that guided our committee through the first six years of planning and decisions, resulting in the evolution of the Engineering Conference for Rockland’s high school students into what it is today.
