The IOTA Chapter of Sigma Lambda Chi (SLX) will host their annual Golf Outing on Tuesday, October 4, 2016, at the Auburn University Club.

“This is a special year for the IOTA chapter as it completes 50 years since the first induction in 1966,” said Keith Rahn, assistant professor in charge of the event. “It is a great time to meet students, connect with faculty and reconnect with fellow alums and industry leaders. The golf outing is being held in conjunction with the 2016 Fall BSCI Career Expo. More than 130 participated in the event last year,” Rahn added.
Registration is open now and ends on Wednesday, September 14, 2016. Last year the event filled all the player openings nearly two weeks before the deadline, so early registration is suggested. The registration form includes sponsorship opportunities and player registration. Individual and corporate sponsorship for the event is greatly appreciated. Registration fees for employers, alumni and industry representatives are $125.00. It is $80.00 for Pre and Professional BSCI Students only. For all other students, it will be $125.00 each.
