First Friday Lunch at the Nassau Club - October 5th, 2012
Join us for First Fridays, a monthly recurring event for undergraduate and graduate Princeton alumni, graduate students, and parents. On the first Friday of each month, area alumni and their guests meet to enjoy a prix fixe luncheon buffet at the Nassau Club in downtown Princeton. As a special bonus for PA3, a Princeton PhD candidate presents his/her work to the group in this informal setting. Topics vary monthly and are always interesting!This month, we will be joined by Ismaiel Yakub, a Lecturer in the Keller Center at the Engineering School. Yakub received his MA and PhD in 2010 and 2012, respectively, in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. He will talk with us about his work, including his latest activity: instructor for the "Sustainable Buildings Team" of the Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS). The team's objective is to apply a holistic approach to design and build a scalable, easily constructed, inexpensive, safe and sustainable modular housing system. This year, Yakub's EPICS team will be focusing on improving the design of the BEE HOME, so called because of its honeycomb shape.
Specially priced at $25/person (or $30 if you choose not to pay PA3's annual dues), lunch includes the Nassau Club’s full buffet as well as a complementary beverage (wine, beer, soft drink). Pre-registration is required.

First Friday Lunch at the Nassau Club - September 7th, 2012
Join us for First Fridays, a monthly recurring event for undergraduate and graduate Princeton alumni, graduate students, and parents. On the first Friday of each month, area alumni and their guests meet to enjoy a prix fixe luncheon buffet at the Nassau Club in downtown Princeton. As a special bonus for PA3, a Princeton PhD candidate presents his/her work to the group in this informal setting. Topics vary monthly and are always interesting!This month, we will be joined by Darren Pais, a fifth-year Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Kuwait who works with Professor Naomi Leonard on studying emergent collective behavior of groups in biology and in robotics. His dissertation will contribute to the understanding of the evolutionary mechanisms for cooperation and tradeoff management in biological collectives, as well as the design of decision-making protocols for robotic groups. Among specific group behaviors that Darren studies are collective predator pursuit and prey evasion and collective migration. Darren has been the recipient of several prizes and fellowships, including a Wu Fellowship, the Athena Feron Prize, the Sayre Award, a Harari Fellowship and the Crocco Award for Outstanding Teaching. This year he is the recipient of the Graduate School's Harold W. Dodds Honorific Fellowship.

PA3 Event Grants - Apply for up to $300!
Request for Proposals:
PA3 Event Grants
(Receive Up to $300 for
Your Event!)
Do you have an idea for an event that may be
interesting to other Princeton alumni and haven’t the funds or ability to reach
out to other local alumni? Here’s your
chance to get it started…with a grant for up to $300! All ideas are welcome. Keep reading for details...
The Princeton Area Alumni Association (PA3) requests
grant applications for PA3 events. We
are especially interested in events that 1) are a different activity than
previously tried, 2) interest a different segment of our constituents, and 3)
are located outside of the Princeton area.
Our region encompasses New Brunswick to Mansfield, and Flemington to
Freehold. The demographics of our
members span the gamut of ages, ethnicities, professions, interests, etc. As such, the PA3 Executive Committee is
always looking for new ideas and outreach.
Here are the details: Please submit in writing (email is fine) a
brief description of your idea and your estimate of costs. Although your event may target a group or
area, you must agree to invite all alumni that live within our region to attend
(including graduate students and parents of current students). You may limit
the total number of attendees, if you like.
We will certainly help with the event if you need it: advertising, supporting planning and
logistics, collecting RSVPs and/or ticket payments (if desired), decorating
with PA3 banners or other paraphernalia, and reimbursing expenses up to
$300.
Please note: The grant monies cannot be used for
commercial interests or to be donated to a charity or cause. It can be used to buy supplies or
tickets for a charity event at which PA3 members participate.
Submit proposals to:
Princeton Area Alumni Association
c/o Kristin Epstein, President
11 Madison Dr.
Princeton Junction, NJ 08550
PrincetonAreaAlumni@gmail.com
There is no due date. Multiple proposals from one person are welcome. You will be notified within 2 weeks if your proposal is accepted.
Thank you!
-The PA3 Executive Committee
