Welcome back to campus!  I hope you had a restful winter break.  Following are some reminders/announcements as you prepare for the semester.

  1.  I’d like to welcome two new staff members to the ME team in Indianapolis:
     *   Devin Glass:  Machine Shop/CNC Supervisor
     *   Ray Issa:  ME Instructional Support Engineer
  2.  Most of the School policies are available on the ME Intranet site:  https://engineering.purdue.edu/Intranet/Groups/Schools/ME   In particular, I often refer to the “School Policies” link on the right-hand side under the “School Resources” heading.
  3.  If you have an announcement you’d like to make for the ME undergraduate students, send it to menews at purdue.edu to get posted to the PurdueME.com web site.   If you have an announcement for the ME graduate students, send it to megradblog at purdue.edu to get posted on the purduemegrad.blog website.  I encourage you to have your graduate students subscribe to the ME Graduate blog if they don’t already.
  4.  Please make use of the EL 104 help room for instructor and TA office hours.  Students have given positive feedback about having course help located in the same location.  Contact Sherrie Tucker (tucker76 at purdue.edu) with the days and times when you’ll be using the room.
  5.  UG research can be supported a variety of ways:   hourly pay, ME 498xx/499xx (up to 9 cr), SURF (summer), DUIRI, and VIP.  For more information, have a look here:  https://engineering.purdue.edu/ME/Undergraduate/ResearchOpportunities
  6.  The Academic Success Center (ASC) will provide (free) group tutoring for students enrolled in ME 20000 (WLaf version) and ME 27000 (WLaf version) this semester.  You can contact Joanna Cardarelli (jcardare at purdue.edu) for more information.  In addition, students can serve as (paid) tutors or request (free) tutors through the ME Tutoring Program.  Please refer to the following link for more information:  https://engineering.purdue.edu/ME/Undergraduate/Tutoring


Cheers,

— Carl
