I already talked to Stephanie in the Alumni Office of Stony Brook University (my undergraduate school)
and she is very interested in passing this along to the student, and related community of those interested in
Renewable and Alternative Energy. According to Stephanie, the University also maintains a
Gmuping/Databese of students, professors, contractors, and companies and other interested parties that are
interested in Renewable and Alternative Energy and leveraging these relationships and knowledge. The
University also is leveraging it's ability as one of the larger and more well know State Universities to be a
preeminent disseminator and resource of such information within the tri-state area.
The only request made of the Committee is that we occasionally be available to give presentation to Stony
Brook students and interested parties, probably at Stony Brook.
While the committee would have the give the criteria for additional members to the Alumni Office, that
office would circulate this to potential members first and then be contacted.
