What is IES?
The KU Chapter of the Illuminating Engineering Society is open to
all students and faculty members interested in promoting the art and
science of illumination engineering and lighting design. The KU
group participates in activities such as monthly chapter meetings,
regional and national meetings, and tours of local projects with
their designers.
The 1995 fall semester agenda included an opening picnic with over
forty people in attendance, a tour of a Lawrence neon sign
manufacturing company, a presentation and tour of the Johnson County
Public Library with Bruce Yarnell and Mark Hershmann of Yarnell
& Associates, and a meeting where we watched a video of the 1995
Progress Report as presented at the Annual Conference in New York
City. Our members have also been traveling outside the Kansas City
area to attend the Regional IES Conferences, Lightfair, and the IES
Annual Conference. We've even surprised the Wall Street IESNA
Headquarters by stopping in for a quick tour of the main offices.
Our biggest annual activity is preparing for each spring's
Engineering Expo which is the Engineering School's showcase of
interactive displays demonstrating engineering principles for high
school students, the University, and the local community.
