Member of the Week
Seth Ferrell
Year and major: Junior, Electrical Engineering
Involvement with IEEE: DAV, WRAP, & SPI
Hobbies: Astrophotography, hiking, and (recently) caving
Favorite memory with IEEE: When I tested my tesla coil in the lab and it worked perfectly.
Your most useless talent or fun fact: Contrary to popular belief about tall people, I do not play any sports.
Favorite Artist, Song, or Album: Nujabes
What are you most excited for right now: I'm most excited to do my one goal for the year: to try something new (non-engineering)/join a new community at UCLA.
Piece of advice to our readers: Like life itself, university is a very short period of time. Meet new people, try new things, take advantage of the resources you have around you, and, most importantly, give yourself breathing room to take it all in.
