Introduce yourselves!  \u00a0 Besides the usual (hometown, major, etc),\u00a0 consider these questions as well:\u00a0 Why are you interested in being an engineer?\u00a0 Why are you in the Franklin program?\u00a0 Is there a technology that particularly interests you?\u00a0 What did you do this summer?\u00a0 (What was the most interesting\/fun thing you did this summer?) \u00a0 Then talk about the two readings that you did.
