Each IEEE Section in the United States has a PACE Chairperson who 
is responsible for the listed activities.  All of the PACE Chairs 
will attend the PACE Workshop to contribute and to learn. 

I am a member of the PACE Workshop Committee and I would like to 
hear from you.  What can the IEEE do to help you in all the non-
technical areas of your career?

We have sent a questionnaire out to all of our Section PACE 
Chairs.  I am going to generalize the questions and ask any 
member out there to advise us on what to do.  We would like to 
know what your greatest concerns are about your career.

Questionnaire:

What Professional issues do you foresee will be of greatest 
concern to you or your section in the 1993-1994 time frame?

Because of the current US economy I have been an independent 
consultant almost all of the last year.  Medical insurance has 
become a big problem for me.  Do you see this as a problem?  can 
you help me find a very knowledgeable speaker on the subject?
