Organization of the Year!
Student Involvement hosted their 4th annual Student Organization Recognition Banquet. The event took place at the Barrett Ballroom in the Student Union building. This annual event recognized the achievements of over 300 student organizations. In addition to a memorable and successful awards ceremony, the evening also included student performances by the Salsa Club, Poets and Writers Coalition, and Assyrian Student Association. Dinner was also served and there were over 300 SJSU attendants that included SJSU students, staff, and administrators.
These prestigious awards were designed to recognize excellence in an organization's programming, commu-nity-building, scholarship and leadership endeavors. Student Involvement recognized organizations, officers, members, and advisors who made exceptional contributions to the campus throughout the year.
Our SAE International student chapter was recognized as SJSU's "Student Organization of the Year" and "Most Outstanding Professional / Academic Organization." These awards wouldn't have been possible with-out the dedication, passion, and vision our student members have for SJSU and the San Jose community.
Thank you to Student Involvement for another great event and thank you to all of our supporters!

Sponsored by our SAE International Mid-Cal professional section, our two officers spent three days and two nights representing our San Jose State University student chapter to over 10,000 engineering industry professionals from all over the world. They represented SJSU and handed out fliers, displayed posters, and played videos that showcased and explained the projects and programs our student chapter participates in. They were ex-hibited amongst other student chapters, including Western Michigan University, University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Lawrence Tech University, and Duke. The event housed over 80 exhibitors including Honda, GM, Chrysler, and TARDEC. There were also techni-cal seminars / classes, Ride and Drive’s, a career fair, and even an elementary school Jet Toy competition.
During their stay, they also had the opportunity to vis-it the SAE International student chapters at University of Michigan Ann Arbor and Lawrence Tech University. They were given facility tours of their machine shops and labs. They also had a sneak peak of the U of M Ann Arbor 2010 Formula SAE racecar and Lawrence Tech University’s 2010 Formula Hybrid and Formula SAE racecars.

Every year, San Jose State University’s College of Engineering hosts a banquet awarding alumni, faculty, and students for their accomplishments and contributions to the engineering society. This year SAE International was in attendance since our very own President, Randy Floresca, was awarded the Donald Beall-Rockwell Stu-dent Award for Engineering Accomplishment.
At the banquet, students from the College of Engineering were seated with industry professionals from such companies such as Cisco, Novellus, and our proud sponsor, Club Auto Sport to mingle and network with po-tential employers. Over a hundred professionals and students were treated to an exquisite three course meal along with speeches from guest speakers, awardees, and even a raffle for prizes at the end.
Congratulations to all the awardees!
