So Winter Aerofest was last Wednesday, which was interesting. Aerofest is an event put on by AIAA to showcase the department's student groups and give them an opportunity to recruit en masse - with pizza. Each group makes a 5 minute presentation and displays a poster in the atrium for inspection afterwards. The winter aerofest is always slightly less lively than aerofest in the fall, just because many students/freshman have already committed to the groups they will work for. Nevertheless, it was informative, and I enjoyed seeing the naked hanging tongue of MASA's vice president boldly displayed on the questions page of a presentation for I think the third time at Aerofest.
A full representation of the power and might of Michigan's aerospace students was on display. Especially SEDS@UM. In fact, our title slide was in 3D. This was fitting - everything we do is in 3D. We managed to recruit two members at the event... not many, but more than I expected. When all was said and done, even if our recruiting power was somewhat impotent, I enjoyed seeing the familiar faces of Aero student group leaders, nearly destroying the XSAS demo, and making my first presentation with a 3D title slide.
