The Chemical & Nuclear Engineering and Computer Science departments had information tables along the atrium's left side, and the Dean's Office and Multicultural Engineering Programs lined the back wall at the Nov. 15 open house. |

ECE Academic Advisor Roberta Menicucci talks with a guest at ECE's information table. More than 50 prospective students expressed interest in ECE during the event, and dozens of parents also talked with Roberta. |
Helpers at ECE's table included Frank Hemingway (left), a senior EE major, and Professor Diana Huffaker (right). |
After seeing the laser show and Tesla coil demonstrations, guests lined the upstairs hallway to respond to trivia questions during prize-drawing breaks throughout the evening. |
School of Engineering Dean Joseph Cecchi announced prize-drawing winners every 20 minutes. Prizes included two iPods, blankets, an HP e-copier and a Palm Z22. They were donated by Belew's Office Supply, Office Depot, Hancock Fabrics and the UNM Bookstore. |
Guests cluster around the Civil Engineering table. Josie Gibson, CE's coordinator of program advisement, sits behind the table. |
Besides its information table, the Mechanical Engineering department provided its atrium for the event - and its bright red race cars. |
