IEEE-Eta Kappa Nu (IEEE-HKN) was founded by Maurice L. Carr at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign on 28 October
1904, to encourage excellence in education for the benefit of the public. IEEE-HKN fosters excellence by recognizing those students
and professionals who have conferred honor upon engineering education through distinguished scholarship, activities, leadership, and
exemplary character as students in electrical or computer engineering, or by their professional attainments. THE BRIDGE is the official
publication of IEEE-HKN. Ideas and opinions expressed in THE BRIDGE are those of the individuals and do not necessarily represent
the views of IEEE-HKN, the Board of Governors, or the magazine staff.
