About Order of the Engineer:
An Invitation from Florida Section President:
This column is my encouragement to each engineer to accept the Oath and Initiation into the Order of the Engineer. I joined the Order of the Engineer and currently wear my ring. Your current SunCoast Branch President, Jim Schotsch, and Past President Marquis Bing, and Florida Section Vice President Sal DePaolis are also members of the Order. If you are not a member, then, it’s time!
As President of the ASCE Florida Section, I’ve stated a goal to raise the awareness of our Profession’s Obligation; each engineer “...will always be conscious that my skill carries with it the obligation to serve humanity...” I believe I can achieve this goal by elevating awareness within our professional societies. In a public ceremony, initiates to the Order of the Engineer, state the Order’s Oath and receive a ring as an outward and recognizable sign of their acceptance of the Order. The oath was written by Rudyard Kipling and the original rings were made from the wreckage of a failed bridge that tragically killed dozens.
Please give consideration to this invitation to join. Please email ASCE.SunCoast@gmail.com if interested.
