PRESIDENT'S COLUMN
Recently I was looking on Forward Wisconsin’s website. I copied a paragraph from their plastics page for you to read:
Wisconsin Prominent Leader in Plastics Industry
What struck me was 36% of all U.S. plastics manufacturing activity takes place within a 500-mile radius of Wisconsin, that’s huge. This also shows the strength our area has in our economy and also our importance for the future. We can see this number grow by our continued dedication the plastics industry and all our related trades and fields. But is this a guarantee for the future; near future yes, distant future well this is going to be the up to the youth in school and some very active programs that are going on right now. One such program is currently being run by Jeff Thielke Ed.S., National Board Certified Instructor of PLTW-Plastics-Technology Education at Germantown Kennedy Middle School. For over 10 years he has supported the plastics industry by teaching his students about it. Let’s look at his program development; he receives direct support from the Milwaukee SPE Education Foundation, the SPE Thermoforming Division, numerous Wisconsin companies who donate plastic and molds for his program, Jeff has written the Manufacturing Plastics Youth Apprenticeship Curriculum for Wisconsin and to top it off he even has other School Districts visit his plastics program. I applaud Jeff’s dedication and determination to further the plastics industry right here in Wisconsin but more so it’s for what he is doing for our future. If the interest in plastics is started with our youth then I know the future is bright.
As always, feel free to contact me directly!
Sincerely,
|

FUTURE CITY EVENT A HUGE SUCCESS! By: David Leckman
I want to thank Milwaukee SPE again for their support in STEM Forward’s Future City competition last week as a Special Award judge and sponsor. Future City is a program developed for seventh and eighth grade students to help them discover and foster interests in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). For many of these students, this is the first time for them to hear about the engineering societies and companies that you represent. Contest results can be found here
Thanks again, |
