American Institute of Professional Geologists
Arizona Section
Dear Valued Member of the Environmental & Engineering Geologic Community and Profession of Arizona,
I would like to call to your attention the upcoming Seventh Annual Arizona AEG Student Night event. We are inviting professionals and
students practicing, teaching, and studying in the many related fields of economic, environmental, and engineering geology; geological,
geotechnical, and mining engineering; and, groundwater, and water resources to attend Student Night 2012. This year Student Night is
scheduled for the evening of Monday, April 2, 2012 on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson beginning at 5:30 PM.
The purpose of Student Night is to provide students an opportunity to learn more about careers in the industry and a venue for the
presentation of selected student research and work projects to the professional community. Our focus for the event is to bring students
and professionals together and provide a fun yet professional forum for networking and exploration of employment/internship prospects.
Student Night also provides professionals who attend with the opportunity to market their companies to students and recruit potential
future employees. We need your support and participation to ensure the success of this student-focused event!
More information can be found in the attached flyer and at http://www.uaaeg.org/2012/02/studentnight2012/ .
Student Night 2012 will be co-hosted by the Arizona Section of the Association of Environmental & Engineering Geologists (AEG)
and Phoenix and Tucson Chapters of the Arizona Hydrological Society (AHS).
Information on the organizational structure, membership, and mission of the AEG and AHS are available at their prospective websites.
This year's event is also supported and promoted by the University of Arizona's AEG Student Chapter (UAAEG), and the Hydrology
and Water Resources Student Association (HWRSA). Profits from this year's event will be donated to the UAAEG to be used to help
send students to the 2012 National AEG Conference in Salt Lake City.
We are actively recruiting students to attend and make presentations on their research and work projects via communications with
professors at our State Universities and local Community Colleges. More information on presentations, posters and deadlines can be
found on the website. To provide incentive and assistance for student participation, we will subsidize the cost of student dinners at the
meeting through the purchase of dinners and display space by professional attendees. Yes, that means STUDENTS EAT FREE!
Please RSVP early so that we can build momentum for this great event. And pass along the flyers to your colleagues and friends who
might be interested as well. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing you at Student Night!
Sincerely,
Randy Post, P.E., G.I.T.
