Have you ever thought: “none of these meetings apply to me” or “why do they always have meetings on day I can’t go”? If you have, then now’s your chance to change that! Come to the SWE yearly planning meeting to help us map out the course of the next year for speakers, events, tours, etc. Last year’s planning meeting was extremely useful and helped the committee plan the upcoming year and compare our course to the goals and mission of SWE.

SWE and IEEE WIE (Women in Engineering) toured the Seabrook Power Plant on May 20, 2008. It was a great experience for the whole group and was a very interesting behind the scenes tour of the plant, especially the turbine generator. Tour members learned that Seabrook produces enough power to supply a million households at a time! They got to walk next to the generator and even feel how much the turbine vibrated the floor and how the sea water cooling the plant warms. See more pictures in the photo gallery.
