Conference sessions covered topics from presenting each university\u2019s successes and challenges to discussing how to better connect students from different universities to an overview of the new format for next year\u2019s annual report<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Networking was also a critical component of WSCL. Making connections with other students and with Civil and Environmental Engineering Professionals from ASCE Younger Member Groups and ASCE Section and Branch leaders is important for a variety of reasons. Ideas within and outside of ASCE can be shared, friendships can be formed, and potential career opportunities can be created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the student-focused sessions, several events were held with the younger members and section and branch leaders, whose conferences occurred simultaneously. Highlights included several networking events (including meals!), a speech by ASCE President-Elect Robert Stevens, and a Q & A session with ASCE\u2019s President, past President, and President-Elect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, WSCL was a great experience where we made new connections and formed new and exciting ideas for USC ASCE. If you\u2019re at all interested in a leadership role at USC ASCE, get excited for WSCL 2015 in Seattle, WA!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
