North Alabama Regional Science Fair Winners

On March 13, 2001 Calhoun Community College hosted the North Alabama Regional Science Fair. Students from middle and high schools in North Alabama submitted their projects for judging in a competition to see who would get to take their projects to the state science fair in April. The Huntsville Section of the IEEE was represented among the judges by Jim Anderson, Dan Casey, Jim Kennedy, Will Preussel and Wayne Wolf. IEEE judges focused on the categories of Computer Sciences, Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences and awarded eight $100 US Savings Bonds to their winners. The selected winners, who also received a Certificate of Achievement at the awards ceremony held March 15th., are shown in the table below.
