More touch points in Alabama ...


Congratulations to the team in the Alabama Section who have just formed a Life Member Affinity Group and to the team at the Alabama A&M who have formed a WIE Student Branch Affinity Group.

We wish these new units well and hope that they will engage additional members in IEEE for the benefit of IEEE, the profession, and the members.
