Beta Chapter’s New Student Lounge: A Fresh Start
We are thrilled to announce the grand opening and rededication of Beta Chapter’s new student lounge! Previously tucked away in the basement, this beloved lounge was a place where students could hang out, do school work, play games, and even enjoy a cafe. Now, they’ve moved to a fantastic new location out of the basement!?
On September 19th, HKN Beta Chapter students, advisors, department heads, and alumni gathered to celebrate this exciting milestone. IEEE-HKN Governor and Beta Chapter Alumnus John McDonald was at the celebration. The event was made even sweeter with a delicious 120th anniversary cake.?
This new space is more than just a lounge. It’s a symbol of growth, community, and their commitment to providing a supportive and enjoyable environment for Purdue students. Can you spot all the Outstanding Chapter Award plaques they have on display?

The lounge renovations and new equipment was made possible by a bequest from Don Heirman to his beloved Beta Chapter. Here’s to new beginnings and many more memories to be made in their new student lounge!?

Welcome Nu Lambda Chapter at Western New England University
On 3 October 2024, the Nu Lambda Chapter at Western New England University became the 7th new chapter to be installed this year. Sean Bentley, 2024 IEEE-HKN President-Elect, presided over the installation ceremony where eight students and one professional took the oath to become HKN members. Graduate student and incoming chapter president, Daniel Williams acted as the master of ceremonies. Dr. Steven Li will serve as the chapter’s inaugural faculty advisor. When Dr. Li was inducted into the Eta Chapter at the 2023 IEEE Board Series last November, he became eager to bring HKN to Western New England University, where he is an associate professor of industrial engineering and engineering management.
The new chapter is already jumping into the HKN family, sending a delegation to the 2024 IEEE-HKN Student Leadership Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. We are excited to support all the wonderful contributions that the Nu Lambda Chapter will make in the years to come!
