Included the Chapter Officials Conference and Annual Meeting notices and application forms. Added a section on free materials available upon request. Added several new Chapter links. As the year drew to an end an announcement came from SME International that a new Student Chapter petition had been approved. The new chapter was at Penn States Berks campus and is a chapter sponsored by Senior Chapter 83 Lehigh Valley.
Congratulations are in order.
Establishment of a new student chapter has required lot of work on the part of many individuals. The guide is intended to provide answers to commonly asked questions about Region, an outline of programs available, and contact names. It has been a goal of the Region to take part in a major Trade Show within the Region. This year saw the realization of that goal. Region 3 was invited to the American Machine Tool Distributors show in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
