News from My Alma Mater

The University of Missouri’s College of Engineering (my alma mater) will hold an open house to celebrate the opening of new undergraduate laboratories and research space. The event will take place at Laferre Hall on the university’s Columbia, MO, campus. It will begin at 2 p.m. on November 5, 2009. The highlight of the event will, no doubt, be the blessing of St. Patrick, long recognized at the university as the patron saint of engineers.
