Congratulations to RPI SWE member Meghan Olson ('14),
who was recognized in the most recent edition of Rensselaer Magazine!
Together with Caroline Pitner ('14), Meghan was featured on the cover of the Winter 11-12 edition of the on-campus magazine for her involvement in Rensselaer's entrepreneurship program.
From the article:
"When Meghan Olson '14 began her college career at Rensselaer last fall, she didn't expect to end up pitching a new product she helped develop to a panel of judges. But she and classmate Caroline Pitner '14 got 90 seconds to deliver their elevator pitch about a filter to remove arsenic from contaminated drinking water - using the natural filtering power of cattails. Entrepreneurship was not on Olson's mind when she decided to double-major in Mechanical Engineering and Design, Innovation, and Society" [page 25]
