Ok, so I had and idea. Our committees seem to get along but not enough cross-pollination between committees often because we simply don’t know what goes on in the different committees. So I’m looking to change that. I’d like to start by offering a free class to the chairs. From my standpoint, the Chair is the main cheerleader for their respective committee. So the more you know about another the more likely you are to give your members ideas of where help can be found. So here is my deal:
I will be setting up a HAAS class for the last Sunday in October. Teacher approval will be required so that I can make sure it will be a chair attending. Please attend but be aware it us 6 hours long. Make a day of it, and make a domino. If this works out, I’ll do the same for the lathe, mill, and plastics (once we move).
The idea here is that HOPEFULLY you’ll do the same with one of your committee classes. Get the other chairs involved in your groups and build some camaraderie and cooperation.
Let me know what you think, and keep an eye out for the class on the calendar.

Depending on availability I’d be glad to attend to show my support.

While Information Technology/Software Engineering and data sciences may not be an interest for mechanical engineers and light industrial engineers, or general geekery hobbyist. We all share a commonality of wanting to learn how things work and to make things that improve lives. Therefore anyone is open to take a class held by VCC Computer Committee.
I don’t know, maybe. this is a special class with a lot of more team building goals in mind. I may set up the haas and let any chair that wants to make the domino. Hopefully it will foster some new ideas.
oh, oh! my mistake - I copied and pasted my regular haas class description and that included the fee. The haas class for chairs is FREE. Unfortunately, the fee field is not one I can edit or delete. If anyone can change that please do. Otherwise chairs - just show up on the 28th for the class.
bump.
So far only 5 chairs have actually signed up. All chairs are welcome, but actually signing up gives me a good idea of the pace I can set and whether we can cut some dominos after class. cheers!
I would love to take this but I have family in town. Keep it up, love the idea of it and I’m sad that I need to miss it. I’m trying to think of a beneficial class I could tech for all of the committee chairs as a result. I only see my brother and his wife once every few years now and it’s important to annoy him in person.
