MATE 493 WIT Deadlines and Reminders

Most of you met with Peter Caroselli, our assigned WIT for this term on Tuesday evening. The key pieces of information you all (seniors) need to have regarding the WIT process are as follows:

1. The first draft of your final written report is due (by E-mail) to the WIT no later than 5/7/08. Please send documents in Word (.doc rather than .docx format to be safe) to Pete Caroselli at <pc94@drexzel.edu>. Pete will review your writing and provide feedback on the writing, grammar, syntax and structure. He will NOT be commenting on the technical content...that's between you and your Advisor(s) and mentor. You should each then make an appointment to meet with Pete IN PERSON at the Writing Center to go over his comments. Then you should incorporate suggested changes into your document as it grows from a draft to the final thing, which is to be handed in for grading (by 5/21/08). A copy of the WIT guidelines is attached to this posting.

 
2. Abstracts are due to me by 4/17/08 - please make sure to use the format shown in the template I circulated previously. If you don't have this then come see me.

3. Outside Judge: If anyone has a suggestion for an external judge for the CoE Senior Design Competition then please let me have their name and contact information ASAP.
