"Continuing the Excellence" - David Cwiertny - President Fall 1999
Summary:
All I really wanted to do when I took over as
president was continue the excellent tradition of
executive officers that CA A had had before me. I saw
the visions of previous leaders like Bernie Lin, and I
was inspired to try to continue those and reach even
higher levels of success (and hopefully not screw up
along the way :)). I came away from my presidency
fairly pleased with how the semester resulted. We
recieved the candidate list in a remarkably fast
manner, and had the largest candidate class to date (I
believe). We started some good events and continued
many of the old ones. I was blessed to have a
tremendous officer corps that, in spite of being a
little green in experience, was incredibly motivated
and full of wonderful ideas and inspiration. My time
with Tau Beta Pi was great. Looking back, I miss it
more than I thought I would. But being the president
and working with such great individuals and meeting so
many wonderful new friends was an experience I will
never forget.
so there you have it. i never thought i would look
back on tbp and berkeley and miss it so much.
