The National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) has named Weldon doctoral student Darryl Dickerson as chair of it's national executive board. The NSBE is one of the largest student-managed organizations in the nation, and dedicated to increasing the number of black engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally, and positively impact the community. It was founded in 1971 at Purdue by Edward Barnette and Fred Cooper and has grown into an organization with some 20,000 members. Congratulations to Darryl on his new responsibilities.
