CHAIRMAN'S COLUMN Last week, we celebrated the graduation of our undergraduate and graduate students in a series of ceremonies on Friday and Saturday. I wish all the graduating students the best of luck in their careers and in their lives and the remaining students a very good summer break. Many of the graduate students will continue to work on their research work during summer here at Northwestern. Students who will return for classes in Fall are encouraged to check the ECE departmental web page for the latest schedule of courses for the 2003-04 academic year. Since the academic year has ended, this will be the last electronic newsletter of the year. We will resume our electronic newsletter on September 15, 2003, with the beginning of the Fall quarter.
