Opening of the Universal Transportation Model Simulation Center
|
| Getting stuck in traffic is part of driving in New York City. But a new traffic simulator could make the commute smoother and cleaner for drivers and pedestrians. There's nothing like a little traffic to throw a wrench in your schedule. "Traffic … it gets hectic...definitely gets hectic in the city," said Enrique Rivera of East Harlem. But thanks to a new super computer-powered transportation simulator City College of New York researchers, students and transportation officials are now one step closer to being able to direct drivers away from traffic jams -- before they occur.

John Vig ’64 to Head IEEE
|
| CCNY alumnus John Vig has been selected as president-elect of IEEE, and will lead the organization in 2009. Dr. Vig came to the United States in 1957 from his native Hungary. By 1969, he held a BS from CCNY and a PhD from Rutgers, both in Physics. “Without CCNY, I probably would not have a college education today, and, I definitely would not have been elected to high positions in the IEEE,” he said.

|
| In January of 2008, CCNY’s Engineers Without Borders (EWB) went back to La Nueva Suiza, Honduras to celebrate the success of the water system they designed and helped construct and consider what to do next. La Nueva Suiza’s Council of Elders scheduled the inauguration of the new facilities for the group’s return. This major village event drew the mayor and the bishop’s representative, the media were out in force, the ladies of the village prepared 500 tamales, and there was plenty of music and good fellowship.

Five Exceptional High School Students Become Kaylie (Mini-Circuits) Scholars
|
| When Harvey Kaylie ’60 EE, founder and president of Mini-Circuits, established five $30,000 scholarships for incoming students at the Grove School, he wanted to encourage young people, who like himself, had the qualifications and the drive for an engineering education but lacked the means. And the bar for these students was set very high. The requirements were a minimum high school average of 90 and minimum SAT score of 1250; with demonstrated financial need, a positive work ethic shown through work experience, community service, research beyond the regular class room hours, or other exceptional activities.
