LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
Dear HKN members and Friends:
This is my favorite time of the HKN year! Having just returned from our annual
Student Leadership Conference (SLC) as well as presenting the Outstanding
Chapter and Outstanding Student Awards at the Electrical and Computer Engineer
Department Head (ECEDHA) meeting and our face to face meeting with the IEEEHKN Board of Governors, there is so much excitement, energy, progress, and
enthuasism for IEEE-HKN. Please join me in expressing appreciation to the Beta
Chapter at Purdue University and to conference chair Nadra Guizani and members
Stephen Larew, Kelsey Larson, and Dennis Ogbe. Great job and thank you for your
hospitality and hard work on producing a successful SLC.

I hope you are enjoying our CHAPTER NEWS section. Chapters have been answering the
call to share the programs and services they provide, such as: Beta Tau at Northeastern
University "One on One Freshman Mentoring Program" which provides information
on courses, professors, careers, and student success; and the award winning K-12
Outreach Program Nu Chapter at Iowa State University where they organize a wide
variety of K-12 STEM outreach programs and activities at local elementary and middle
schools; the Beta Delta Chapter for their "Hands on Science" event which mentored
19 high school students on building miniature traffic lights using integrated circuits on
breadboards. and our Beta Nu Chapter at Georgia Tech in addition to their successful
tutoring program coordinates all of the honor and service organizations in community
service activities. Beyond the sheer number of hours dedicated to service by our
Chapters, multiply those hours by the number of others impacted by their service.

There are many things to look forward to in the coming months:
*
*
*

A new HKN.org. Look for the launch in September with new functionality and interactive processes
Our Chapter Resource Ad-Hoc Committee is developing a suite of "best practice" and templates for your chapter to
you in your recruiting and initiate process, chapter experience and activities, officer training and tools, and much more
New optional rituals to promote the "passing of the gavel" training for new officers and recognition opportunities for
graduating seniors and chapter leaders

As the academic calendar 2016-2017 is coming to a close, a few reminders:
1. Submit your induction paperwork in a timely manner: You are not officially HKN until form/payment is received by HQ
2. Notify us of your election and all changes in officers or advisors
The best legacy you can leave your chapter is to train and prepare the next group of officers
3. ORDER Graduation Regalia (honor cords and stoles):
4. Annual Chapter Reports are due JUNE 30th
a key chapter requirement as well as your entry into the Outstanding Chapter Award
5. Nomination for the Outstanding Student Award: June 30th
Congratulations to all of our graduates - remember, Once HKN ... always HKN
And to the alumni, stay in touch, you are a valuable asset to your chapter and to HKN, please help us support and advance
opportunities for our students and future.
Yours in HKN,

Director, IEEE-HKN
