I am pleased to report the success of the PATW organized by the IET Norcal Network at the University of California, Berkeley.  I thank Sonia, Allen and John for working unceasingly for the program.  I also want to thank Dr. Hayden Taylor and Ms Synyee Chin for accepting the request to serve as judges.  Norcal Network is very grateful to the University of California for their gracious help in letting us use the facility for the function.





My special thanks go to every contestant for the noteworthy subjects and being wonderful contestants and supporters of the program.  The path has now been laid and the Norcal Network is ready for national competition, recruiting young professionals, and promoting further the IET brand, IET on Campus. 





Thank you,
