 >    In addition to his attendance at our banquet next Thursday,
 >    Feb. 6, Wally Read will be visiting Georgia Tech for that entire 
 >    day.  I have scheduled a time that he can meet with us

 >    in room W218 in the Van Leer building from 9:00-10:00 AM.  
 >    The meeting will be informal -- no agenda is set -- and is an 
 >    opportunity for us to talk with Wally, get his insights on 
 >    Section operation, and perhaps gain better perspectives on 
 >    IEEE in general.

 >    I realize the difficulties in getting away from work, but I
