Abstract :
The New York Section of the Institute will hold its second annual Student Convention on Friday, April 8, 1927. The meeting will cover an entire day and evening. The morning will be devoted to inspection trips by the students only. The afternoon session, in Room 1, Fifth Floor, Engineering Building, 33 West 39th Street, New York City will be occupied by the presentation of student papers in competition for the prize of $25.00 in gold offered by the New York Section. There are eight colleges in the territory of the Section giving courses in electrical engineering, and these will be entered in the competition. Following the afternoon session, a dinner will be held at the Fraternity Club, but because of limited accommodations, only those obtaining tickets in advance will be admitted. The charge will be $1.50 per cover. The morning and afternoon programs have been arranged entirely by committees of students and will be carried out solely under their direction.
