  30. Questions? Thank You!

  31. Hawaii Organization

  32. Hawaii Organization CE Club Coordinator (Jon Young) • Site visits/field trips (various) • Career shadowing (Taka Kimura) • Guest speakers (Eric Young) • UH campus visit (Jon Young) • Service projects (Jon Young) • Design Contest (Mark Rau) • End of year gathering (vacant) • T-shirts (Jon Young) • Fund raising (Jon Young) • Newsletter (Jon Young)

  33. CE Club Coordinator • Represents Hawaii with ASCE National • Represents the club at local activities • Promotes the clubs • Leads the planning effort • Any thing else that is required to make the clubs a success.

  34. Role of the Lead Engineer Commitment: • 2 club meetings per month • Attend end of year gathering • Do monthly report which will be incorporated into the ASCE Outreach committee report. • Get report and photos for monthly newsletter • Coordinate with school • Fundraise

  35. Role of the Lead Engineer Attend 3 planning meetings: • End of the year (late April) • Final details for end of year gathering • Discuss the past year • Discuss plans for next year • Before school starts (mid-July) • Confirm plans for the year • Winter Break (late December) • Progress to date • Refinements

  36. Role of the Faculty Advisor • The faculty advisor needs to be at the meetings.  • It is also important that the faculty advisor be engaged in the activities that we do as a club.  The students need someone on campus that they can turn to for advice.  • The faculty advisor needs to encourage the students to participate in the planned activities.    • The faculty advisor needs to make sure that Thank you notes are sent. • The faculty advisor needs to ensure that the students do the report of the meeting and other activities in a timely manner.

  37. Site Visits/Field Trips • Everyone needs to look for field trips. • It would be good if all clubs did the same field trip, but that does not preclude clubs from doing excursions on their own. • The lead person would change depending on the field trip. • If more than one school attends at a time (most likely scenario), need to coordinate the field trip. • Need to keep database of the field trip, company, company contact, schools attended

  38. Career Shadowing • Everyone needs to look for companies to participate. • There is a guideline for companies to follow. • Once a company has been paired with a club, the club leader or the faculty advisor will coordinate with the company. Need to keep a database of: • Companies contactedand contact person • Date, company and club for each event

  39. Guest Speakers Everyone needs to look for guest speakers. For the club, need to keep track of: • Persons contacted • Speaker info: Name, contact info, high school, college, brief bio • Speaking engagement and brief description of presentation. Club leaders will work with school to determine topics and will schedule speakers.

  40. UH Campus Visit • Coordinate available dates with the UH. • Coordinate with club leaders and we may need to have more than one school visit. • Develop campus visit schedule.

  41. Service Projects The clubs will be invited to join the UH ASCE Student Chapter on their service projects: • Work with Student Chapter on their schedule • Inform club leaders of projects • Get head count of participants from club leaders • Inform Student Chapter of participants Clubs may do their own service projects.

  42. Design Contest Plan contest Get Judges Too much to explain on a couple of slides • For consideration: • Different contest every year – very difficult to execute • Same contest – similar to PBB Contest

  43. End of Year Gathering • Set date, time and place – get consensus among clubs. • Reserve room • Secure equipment needed for the event • Find volunteers • Make arrangements for lunch • Set budget Goal is for the event to have basically the same agenda each year.

  44. T-shirts • Get t-shirt design entries from each school • Get vote from club leaders and faculty advisors • Once design is select, get the following from club leaders: • Color shirt and ink • Orders • Money • Place t-shirt order • Pick-up and distribute t-shirts to club leader

  45. Other Business

  46. Common Storage Area We hope to have an outreach website and Facebook page. However, we still need a less public place to save shared files. Discussion Points: • Suggestions: Google Docs; Dropbox • Available to Club Leaders and Faculty Advisors • Directory structure • Filename convention

  47. Fund Raising • The clubs are part of ASCE, which is a non-profit organization. • Donations are tax deductible • Club finances will be kept by the CE Club Coordinator • Each club will need to be self-funded (suggest the idea of engineering companies in the neighborhood funding the club) • Each club will handle it owns expenses • All clubs will contribute to the end of year gathering based on a per person cost
