| − | + | - As a student and a fellow engineer, I understand that is it important to give respect to the speakers who take time out of their day to come and speak with us. This is why I understand that rules and consequences have been laid down for interruptions such as cell phone usage and chatting. I, however, believe that in turn, the instructors should give us, the students, the same respect we give the speakers of the day. I understand this is usually the case, but at the beginning of lecture 3, a note was written on the board saying "cell phones off". I'm not sure if I was alone in this thought, but I feel that this was very disrespectful to the students considering everyone was already aware of the rules and consequences and the speakers may read this note and feel as though we are a bunch of unruly students who do not want to be there. This only goes to make the speaker feel uncomfortable as well. We all have heard and or read the rules and can quietly be given our punishments if we violate these rules, there is no need to disrespect the rest of us. | |

Lecture 3 Blog, ECE400 Spring 2012, Prof. Boutin
Thursday January 26, 2012 (Week 3)
In the third lecture, we hosted our traditional "Young Alumni Panel". Our panel consisted of three guests who each chose different paths after graduating from Purdue ECE. (Unfortunately, Joe Myer was unable to make it as initially planned.) In case you missed it, here are their full names and affiliations.
- Aaron Todd (Rolls-Royce)
- Ross Howard (Purdue PhD student)
- Ben Brame (President, Allegro Dynamics)
Message from Ben Brame "Hi folks, Thanks for listening today. If you are interested in working with Allegro or have an idea for a startup, I would love to hear from you. Here is my email: bbrame@allegrodynamics.com
Also, here are links to a few things I mentioned.
Previous: Lecture 2
