Min-Hsuan Kuo (2005, CHE) writes, "Min is going back to School!!
After nearly 3 years working for Infineum USA LP, I am finally making it back to Grad school, which is what I have always wanted to do. I'll be pursuing my PhD degree in Chem E. at Columbia University beginning this Fall. I'd like to thank Prof. Bove, Ahmed, and Stock for writing me recommendations, and send my appreciation to my wonderful friends (Joyce, Lin, Mike, Zhen, Andrew, and Sooraj) whose support meant so much to me all this time. Please wish me good luck, I'll need plenty of it! "

Jason Hofstein (1993)
Jason Hofstein (1993, CHE) and wife Hilary are proud to announce the birth of a baby girl, Charlotte Rose. She was born on April 6, 2008 at Bellevue Woman's Hospital in Niskayuna, NY, and weighed 10 lb., 1 oz.

I think my sister-in-law said it best: "...10 pounds with no epidural...Hilary is a rock star...".

That is an understatement...

Both Hilary and Charlotte are doing well and we all are learning how things work...No complaints so far.  Click here for photo

Martha Skinner (1995)
Martha Skinner (1995, AR) writes, "Douglas Hecker and Martha Skinner’s superABSORBER project was published in last week’s issue of BusinessWeek and is in an earlier issue of Architectural Record Magazine as well as this months’s issue of Metropolis Magazine in an article which presents some of the developments of the project. The superABSORBER is also featured in the recently published Transmaterial 2: A Catalog of Materials That Redefine our Physical Environment, Published by Princeton Architectural Press. The project which is a proposal for a new highway wall barrier that absorbs not only sound and light pollution but also airborne pollution, was selected as one of the winners in the Metropolis Magazine Next Generation competition last spring.
