A virtual session on
Thursday, March 31, 2:00 pm
ASHRAE Society President Mick Schwedler challenged every Chapter and Every member to “Feed the Roots”.
Hawaiʻi Chapter members have visualized what the impact is for introducing S.T.E.A.M. through ASHRAE for students of K-12 and of the College of Engineering Students at the University of Hawaiʻi (Young Engineers of ASHRAE, YEA), for years.
Whether it be mentoring robotics or judging at its tournaments, speaking in the classrooms or providing mentorship and even internships to our future S.T.E.A.M. Leaders, ASHRAE Hawaiʻi members keep feeding the S.T.E.A.M. and our ASHRAE Roots.
In this session, you will hear from the students of Kamehameha Schools about their accomplishments and hopefully feel that need to Feed their or other Young Roots.
