Please convey my warm regards to all the ‘youngsters’ in the chapter." - Aaron Dermarderosian - "I hope this finds you well! When possible and available virtually, I continue to try and attend the Boston Reliability chapter meetings as we definitely have one of the most active chapters in the US! Thanks for the invite, I am planning to attend this year virtually and am looking forward to the talk and seeing others again at the year-end event!

Officers and other volunteers may take part in partisan political activities freely on their own personal time, but they must not do so in the course of their role and responsibilities for the Chapter, nor should they represent that they are acting for or on behalf of this Chapter, or give the appearance that they are representing the IEEE." - Menu and Logistics for 11-DEC-2025 Meeting - Schedule Next AdCom Meeting - TBD. - Closing Remarks - Adjournment Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/445583
