Life Member Forum

The Annual Life Member Brunch is held annually in early March in Monterey Park, CA to honor those Section members who have advanced to Life Member status in the Society and in recognition of their career achievements. The regular invited guest speaker for this event has been the ASCE Society President Elect.

A Life Member is defined and recognized as an ASCE member who has reached the age of 65 years and shall have paid dues for at least 30 years and shall have had 10 years of continuous membership immediately preceding the attainment of Life Member. Visit the LA Section website for more details about the Life Member Forum.

Hugh Foreman, ASCE OC Branch President (1956-1957)

In Memoriam: Hugh Howell Foreman, June 24, 1926 - April 23, 2021. Hugh Howell Foreman was the 5th President of the ASCE Orange County Branch, from 1956-1957.

So It Goes…

With the new fiscal year having begun in October, we felt this month’s President’s Column would be a good forum for our new presidents (Remi Candaele, ASCE OC Branch President; Ashlyn Alexander, ASCE OC YMF President) to introduce themselves and for me and YMF counterpart (Melissa Hilsabeck) to reflect on our respective terms as president of the OC Branch and OC YMF. I hope that the Q&A that follows helps you get to know more about each of us.

Legacies

Firmly entrenched in the midst of my career and fast approaching my 40th birthday, I have found myself thinking about legacies quite a lot lately. One of the unique things about being president of the ASCE Orange County Branch is that the position affords the ability to see legacies at various stages of development: ones that have been cemented, ones whose seeds have just been planted, and everything in between. In the ASCE Orange County Branch, I have noted some excellent examples of each over the past few months.

Finding the Words

I presume that if you’re reading this article, you probably became an engineer because your affinity for the language arts was not as strong as for math and sciences (assuming you even liked language arts at all). While I personally enjoy writing and have been told that I am not terrible at it, I still find writing articles like the ones for this column to be challenging. Newsletter articles offer a blank canvas to express your thoughts on a variety of topics, which can be overwhelming.

Final President's Message and Incoming Board

As I conclude my Presidency, I’m very excited to announce our upcoming FY 2020-2021 Board who will continue to build upon what we’ve been able to accomplish during this difficult time.

Welcome New Members!

Please join the Board of Directors in welcoming the newest members to ASCE OC! We look forward to getting to know you and hope to see you at an upcoming event.
