Letter from the Editors-in-Chief
Dear IEEE-Eta Kappa Nu Members and Friends,

This issue of THE BRIDGE magazine contains the 2021 Annual Report,
chronicles our recent awards, and highlights activities which engage our
graduate and alumni members. The organization continues to " promote
excellence in the profession and in education through an emphasis on
scholarship, character, and attitude. " Despite the difficulties brought on
by the pandemic, Eta Kappa Nu has inducted members, provided service
to others, and contributed to the profession. We are particularly grateful
for the growing number of volunteers, donors, and sponsors that support
established and new activities. This issue describes our " Grad Lab " webinars
that are one initiative aimed at our Graduate Student Members, reports our
efforts to better engage our alumni members, and continues our spotlights
on student research activity. These activities reflect our objective of HKN as
a lifelong community which connects students and professionals.
The volunteers that are responsible for the 2021 work, follow a long
tradition of service. Founder Maurice L. Carr observed, " Eta Kappa Nu
grew because there have always been many members who have been
willing and eager to serve it loyally and unselfishly. " HKN volunteer Roger L.
Wilkinson is an example of one who offered lifelong service to HKN. He was
inducted by the Nu Chapter in 1924. He was HKN President in 1933-34,
was a frequent author for THE BRIDGE, and was the Founder of the HKN
Outstanding Young Electrical Engineer Award, now the Outstanding Young
Professional Award. His lifetime of HKN service is described in the History
Spotlight of this issue of THE
BRIDGE.
HKN strives for effective
communication with members
through our HKN website, our
HKN YouTube channel, our
Facebook and LinkedIn pages,
