We continue to be extremely grateful to Debra Landre, the long-time sponsor of the student speaker scholarship at Tahoe. Despite the fact that we were not able to hold the conference, we awarded the $500 speaker scholarship to Sarah Redden, a student at College of the Sequoias, who was preparing a talk on Music Generation with Markov Chains. Sarah Redden is a sophomore at College of the Sequoias in Visalia, California. She is an electrical engineering major who hopes to work in the Aerospace Industry. She was the CMC3 student poster winner in Monterey this past fall and was selected to be a NASA Community College Aerospace student last year.
