Dr. Khismatullin was the chair of the 2014 American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Gulf Southwest (GSW) Section Conference that was held in Omni Royal Orleans hotel, one of the premier French Quarter hotels, on April 2-4. The theme of the conference was Interactive Learning in Engineering Education. Its program featured many excellent talks and workshops that introduced the audience to innovative teaching approached. We reached the highest number of attendees (122) when compared with prior ASEE-GSW Conferences. Many attendees were very happy with the organization of the conference and mentioned the conference was the best regional meeting they ever attended. This success would be impossible without hard work of the conference staff, the program and logistics committees, and, of course, members of our laboratory. Hongzhi, You, Hakm, Sabrina, Scott, Jake, and Dylan - thank you for your help! Dr. Khismatullin will be the Chair of the ASEE-GSW Section starting June of this year and will focus its efforts on improving the image of the section and increasing its membership.
