When asked about a recent regional alumni event in Washington D.C., Poly alumna Claudia S. Matteo (Tom), CS '99 said, "The young alumni in the DC, MD and VA area used to get together about monthly, but as we got married and had kids, our schedules became busier, but as we became older, the next generation of young alumni like Farah Faroul reached out to us as they moved into the area and brought us all back together. We enjoy catching up with the current students who visit our area to compete in the US Science and Engineering Festival. It was also exciting to hear that Poly hosted the eighth annual Cyber Security Awareness Week (CSAW) while I'm managing security contracts at work. Perhaps I will be welcoming young Poly alumni at my job soon."
