February 2023 Recap

OU SHPE Familia Monthly Recap

See what the OU SHPE Familia has been up to during february!

We Attended Shell Leads Diversity!

To kick off the semester, we met with OU alumni from Shell and learned how to cultivate mentorship with multiple student organizations from the Gallogly College of Engineering!

We Participated in the UT - Arlington Lonestar Soccer Showdown!

The SHPE Chapter at UT - Arlington hosted their annual Lonestar Soccer Showdown this semester and we had a great time playing 11 v 11 soccer with our Region 5 Familia! Shoutout to Isaac, Adam, Jaelyn, Ofelia, and Christian for going down to Arlington to represent OU and our alumni Felipe Piedra and Lester Velazquez for joining and supporting us!

We Hosted our Annual Alumni Paint Night for E-Week!

SHPE and Sooners Without Borders hosted the Engineers' Week Alumni Paint Night where we had interactive painting along with mocktails from the OU Gender and Equality Center's Consent Bar. We had so much fun celebrating Engineering and seeing familiar faces around campus again. With 175 people checked in, it was the LARGEST attendance of an E-Week event! Shoutout to OU Alumni Marcos Stocco for being one of E-Week's Keynote Speakers and hanging out with us at the paint night as well!
