## Guest speakers Our first event of the spring semester was Lightning Talks: Co-op. The goal of this event was to bridge the gap between members returning from Co-op and those that had joined us this year. Viewers would be able to get insights into what co-op is like, the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Individual presenters talked on a variety of topics. Some talked about opportunities they were given by their company. We had others give guidance on what was expected by the company as well as what tools and methodologies would give a leg up. It wasnt all sunshine and roses, presenters also pointed out areas where they and/or the companies dropped the ball as well as how they would fix it in the future. We had eight speakers for this event, all of which are members of LM051 currently in 3rd year. * Amie Patterson * Bayan Nezamabad * Brendan Golden * Milan Kovacs * Mohammad Humayun * Prabudda Hans * Sushant Bajracharya
