Pi Mile run

Pi mile run is an annual event organized for the 14th of March (3.14). The student chapter of Engineering honor Society of Tau Beta Pi organizes this run to support the guide dog association of Wisconsin. Pi run is famous for its Pi, Puppies and prizes available at the race

This year pi mile run was organized on the first weekend of April. In spite of it being in April, due to bad weather situation not all of the runners showed up, however, the final run proceeded as planned. This year close to 100 participants ran in the 5k and 10k races.

The volunteers for ASME played a pivotal role in the smooth organization of the run. We had duties of race path guides, bag check, on the day registration, runner check in and prize distribution. Close to $2000 were raised and donated to Occupaws guide dog. The runners as well as the volunteers enjoyed the race which ended with a raffle of left over prices.

Before the run

General Meeting: Georgia Pacific

On Tuesday April 5th, ASME had a general meeting with a speaker from Georgia Pacific. After eating a meal of Chick-fil-A and going over ASME business. We learned about the various engineering positions and opportunities at Georgia Pacific as well as a quick look into the paper making process. We also learned that the best toilet paper is Quilted Northern® Ultra Plush.

Milwaukee Tool Tour

ASME traveled to Milwaukee Tool in Brookfield, WI on the afternoon of February 26, 2016. We received a tour of their impressive facility, were given the chance to learn from and network with many of their UW engineering grads, and participated in competitive power tool relay races. Those who've attended this tour agree that it is one of the better ASME trips to take part in. 

ASME Conference

ASME traveled to Milwaukee School Of Engineering this year for an annual conference event! Many of the officers and some general members made the trip to experience more of what ASME can do and has been doing around the United States.
