Student Leadership Conference
Susan "Kathy" Land, 2020 IEEE President-Elect

I would like to thank IEEE Eta Kappa Nu
President Dr. Karen Panetta and Conference
Chair Dr. Jim Conrad for the invitation to speak
to you today.
And to say 'hello' to the members of HKN here
at the 2019 Student Leadership Conference, you
are truly the future leaders of tomorrow and it is
an honor to be able to speak to you.
I would like to share with you the warmest of
congratulations as we have just this week, on
October 28th, celebrated 115 years of HKN
excellence as we recognized HKN Founders Day.

THE BRIDGE

As we celebrate, and as we are gathered here, I
would like to take a moment to reflect-and to
remember--that although the founding purposes
of HKN...which were to create an organization to
recognize the scholastic success of students and
to help them find employment support in their
careers, as well as the core guiding principles
that, an invitation to join Eta Kappa Nu is an early
recognition of success, based on Scholarship,
Attitude, and Character.
That today, within IEEE, the HKN purpose is
broader than that originally conceived by the
HKN founders-and that is to additionally assist
its members throughout their lives in becoming
better professionals as well as better citizens.
