Honorary Fellowship

That William Adams (a.k.a Will.i.am) was made an Honorary Fellow for his outstanding contributions to engineering is fantastic - it also intrigued me as to the process involved. Does anyone know?

And I also wondered why the process is not invoked more often to reflect the contribution of the many noteworthy individuals - for example people like Elon Musk whose contributions to engineering and technology are very visible and exceptionally impressive. Is there a nominations process?

    In order words, whilst the ordinary mortal wants to be in the IET gang; the IET wants to be in the Will.i.am gang. I do think Elon Musk would have been a better choice to be associated with. A rare mistake perhaps. Anyway, I do like the following entry in the list; an appropriate name of: Mr V A Tester (1998). Could he possibly be the man who gave all of us engineers and technicians: the AVO Meter?
