Contact Local and State Representatives
We all realize that times are hard. Everyone that is involved with public education knows and understands that some cuts must and will be made. However, this does not mean we should gripe and complain; it means we have to raise our voices in one accord loud enough to be heard!
For this reason, we have dedicated this area to giving information out regarding local and state representatives in your area and how they can help impact the state of education, especially in Engineering and Technology. It is critical that you contact these individuals so they know what is going on in your program. We cannot assume they know about Engineering and Technology Education, so lets bring them up to speed.
