societies that you may be interested in. You can also enjoy food and
some entertaining games! You can get a heads up on the organizations
that will be there by checking out the following link:

ANS BBQ

Come out and enjoy some food with fellow ANS members and faculty from
the department. This is a great way to meet people and have fun.

will begin collecting at the ANS BBQ.

We will have ANS shirts this year. They will be available for the
following prices:

ECS Career Fair

Engineering Expo
Monday – Wednesday, September 14-16th, 9am-4pm
Illini Union Rooms A, B, C

The Fall Expo is a great way to get a job or an internship. It’s an
event that you should go to because it is an experience in itself.
While the Expo will not be held for another couple of weeks, it’s good
to prepare for it ahead of time. More information about the Expo,
including a list of companies, is available here:

ANS Alumni Panel
Friday – Saturday, October 9-10th

We will be tailgating the game against Michigan State on October 10th.
If you want to tailgate please plan on buying tickets ahead of time.
The longer you wait the more expensive and harder to find they become.
More information will be available as the date approaches.

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions please don’t
hesitate to email me.

Good luck this semester!
