There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Georgia Engineer - October 2008
Column by Don Giddens, dean of the College of Engineering at Georgia Tech and chair of the National Academy of Engineering Committee that conducted the engineering perceptions and messaging study, "Changing the Conversation." Ask a typical teenager to describe an engineer, and more likely than not, the image will focus on someone, usually male, who designs and builds cars, bridges, buildings and the like. While the example is certainly valid, this narrow and outdated image is troubling on several levels.
