Adventure stories are not limited to cowboys and comic book superheroes. We will hear from three Scientech Club engineers about their experiences.
Theresa Minton will tell you how a network engineer new to Indiana government used knowledge, perseverance, and willingness to ruffle quite a few bureaucratic feathers to remove unused circuits from the state’s communications bill and save more than 1.5 times her salary.
Eric Peterson will tell us how railway engineers build and maintain the ‘magic carpets made of steel’ that Arlo Guthrie sang about. He will also cover some special projects he was involved in.
