IEEE Region 3 -SC Council Report Fall 2004 The officers for the SC Council for 2004 are: Stephen Carroll Chair Brent Baker Vice Chair John Montague Treasurer Richard Baker Secretary The Council has had a difficult time creating interest in meeting attendance and participation in Council meetings. The four sections that comprise the SC Council have all been struggling for support of members on the local programs and officer participation in regional activities is very minimal. The council has had E-conferences with some success, though the conferences are not well attended. At least 3 person-to-person meetings are held in Columbia throughout the year with attendance in the 6-8 member range. Meetings are held on Sunday afternoons to allow those from the sections travel time to participate. The council has encouraged the section officers to plan to attend the Section Congress in Tampa in the spring of 2005. Officers of the section will also attend. The next council meeting is scheduled for October 24, 2004, in Columbia to discuss section activities and membership participation. Respectively submitted Stephen G. Carroll. PE
