6. IEEE Central Texas Section Chapter Plans / Issues l We will hold an election this Spring for Officers to serve May 2013 to April 2014 l We will look into having a distinguished speaker. It would need to be a meeting that is joint with the section and other San Antonio Society chapters. l We will invite Bjarne Stroustrup for a special meeting (the last time he came it was the largest attendance we have ever had).
