Yesterday Sigma had a full circle moment at LSU. Some of our LSU College of Engineering Alums were able to take the opportunity to collaborate with LSU’s Society of Women Engineers and speak to workplace fit, culture, and good tips for standing out as an intern. We had such a great turn out + really engaging questions and mentorship moments. Thank you to all who were in attendance and the Society of Women Engineers for having Sigma participate a meaningful way!
What screams Mardi Gras more than a King Cake Competition! Our Sigma Krew brought in over 20 king cakes eateries for judging and tasting. ALL the tables in the conference room were filled to the edges with king cakes. The conference room had never looked better. The judging lineup for this glutton-isk task consisted of Robbie Olivier, Amy Guelph, and Eric Mistretta. After many deep breaths, they powered through the sugary treats to crown this year’s winner- Camilla Ponson. She created a remarkable savory crawfish king cake! We’re all still trying to get the recipe- more to come when we do. Hopefully she was able to retrieve the trophy from the piping department! We always lessen les bon temps rouler at Sigma!
Galentine’s Day
noun [gal-uhn-tahyns day]
1: day for ladies celebrating ladies
2. observed on Feb 13th; traditionally celebrated by kicking it with breakfast-style; must have waffles; only the best day of the year
This year at Sigma, Lauren White and Courtney Stone organized secret galentine’s gift exchange. The ladies at Sigma filled out a form of their “favorites” ranging from snacks to places to shop. Each form was submitted and redistributed to a lady in a different department. The two days leading up to Valentine’s Day, each lady placed little goodies on their galentine’s desk-or even had somebody else deliver it to remain anonymous. Finally, on Valentine’s Day the ladies went to a reveal lunch and shared who their secret galentine was!
