Our AIAA chapter will be hosting an AIAA Student Conference for other regional AIAA chapters. We are bringing in Sy Liebergot from the Apollo missions, and having research presentations from other chapters detailing their projects.  There will be a technical talk given by Northrop Grumman, an answer and question forum with corporate employees from NGC, RR, Lockheed.  For UIUC students, the registration is free, so worth at least registering.  Check out the forum thread for more info and on helping out.
