DATE:   January 11, 2011



The College of Engineering at Virginia Tech is embarking on a long term plan to 
increase the numbers of African American, Hispanic, American Indian, and women 
students admitted to and enrolling in our undergraduate engineering and 
computer science degree programs. We believe that increased diversity of our 
College will enhance the educational experience of all students. Therefore, we 
are requesting your assistance in distributing information about the 2011 
Spring Fling event to interested students.



We are seeking sophomore students with an interest in engineering or computer 
science to travel to Virginia Tech on Saturday, April 23, to attend a tailgate 
party and the Virginia Tech spring football game. We are providing travel 
arrangements from three locations: the Northern Virginia Region, the Tidewater 
area, and Richmond. It will be an exciting day, filled with campus tours, 
activities and the opportunity to meet and mingle with College of Engineering 
students, faculty, and staff. We will have excellent accommodations for 
watching the spring football game - the South End Zone box seats!



Attached is the flyer describing this event and the application materials as 
this is a competitive process with a limited number of students being accepted. 
I ask for your assistance in identifying students and encouraging them to 
apply. Please note the deadline is April 2.
