Dear Mr. Druschitz,
On behalf of the SAE Fellow Committee, I am pleased and delighted to inform you of your elections to the FELLOW grade of SAE membership. The SAE Fellow Committee made their selection based on your outstanding contribution in automotive cast products.
The Fellow grade of SAE membership was established in 1976 for the purpose of honoring our member's professional contributions. This special grade was developed to recognize important technical achievements and to enhance the status of SAE's contributions to the profession and public-at-large. Election is awarded based on exceptional professional distinction by reason of outstanding and extraordinary qualifications, experience, and sustained accomplishment in mobility technology.
The SAE Board of Directors established and maintains high standards for selection of members to the Fellow grade. They protect the dignity and enhance the prestige of the Fellow grade by electing only up to 20 members each year. This year the Fellow Committee chose to elect 20 members of which you are one.
As a new SAE Fellow, you along with the nineteen other newly elected Fellows will be honored at a dinner by your peers. This dinner is to be held at the Marriott Renaissance Center Hotel on Monday evening, March 8, 2004 in Detroit during the 2004 World Congress and Exposition. Also during the week of SAE's World Congress, you will be recognized at the Honors Convocation. You will receive invitations to both of these events.
In addition to being honored at SAE's World Congress, we will be recognizing your achievement in SAE UP date. Please forward a black and white glossy photo of yourself or email it (as a tif file, 300 dpi) to Janiece Lang at SAE Int'l prior to December 5, 2003. Janiece's contact information will be listed at the bottom of this letter.
Congratulations on your election to SAE Fellow. I sincerely hope you will be able to join us in March in Detroit to be recognized by your peers.
Sincerely,
Nicholas Gallopoulos, Chair
2003-04 SAE Fellow Committee |
