Today's Engineer WASHINGTON (14 September 2001) — IEEE-USA's print magazine designed to spark collaborative business skills, Today's Engineer, received one of the top two prizes awarded here last night by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) for the quarterly's last three issues published in 2000. Today's Engineer was honored with the Silver Inkwell Award of Excellence for external four-color magazines, in an overall competition that included some 300 entries in more than three-dozen categories. Today's Engineer was launched by IEEE-USA volunteers and staff in 1998, including: Joel Snyder, Charles Lessard, Gus Gaynor, Jean Eason and Mona Draper. Accepting the award at a National Press Club dinner, attended by more than 200 professional communicators, were: Georgia C. Stelluto, publishing manager for IEEE-USA; and Nick Lutkins, vice president of Alpert & Alpert, the integrated marketing communications firm in Herndon, Va. Also recognized, but unable to attend the ceremony, was Angela Hickman Brady, managing editor for Stratton Publishing, Springfield, Va. The print publication was discontinued last year, but is now incorporated in a monthly webzine at http://www.todaysengineer.org. The quarterly has now won awards for each of its three years of publication, including The Communicator Award of Distinction in 1998 and the Society of National Association Publications' Silver EXCEL Award in 1999. IEEE-USA is an organizational unit of the IEEE created in 1973 to promote the careers and public-policy interests of the more than 230,000 electrical, electronics, computer and software engineers who are U.S. members of the IEEE. The IEEE is the world's largest technical professional society. For more information, visit us online at http://www.ieeeusa.org. The Institute
