Exhibit Loading
We are hosting three different exhibits this year for EOH. The first is a resurrection of last year's penny smasher that will punch a Block I into aluminum disks using a machined die and vice. The second is an interactive exhibit of a hydraulic dump truck that will simulate how a truck bed is lifted, and the third is an exhibit about distracted driving that will feature computer simulations requiring participants' attention for both simulated driving and an alternate task.

3. ASME Philanthropy Director Position Open
Due to some unforeseen circumstances, our current philanthropy chair is going to have to step down for the remainder of the semester.
This chair is responsible for organizing philanthropic events, such as volunteering at foundations and events as well as putting together events where members and nonmembers alike can commit their time to participating in a fun activity such as in a kickball tournament where all the proceeds go to a charity.
Nominations for this position are open through Wednesday, March 5.
To nominate, or for more information on this position, contact Matt Savoie at msavoie2@uiuc.edu
