On October 29th, TCNJ XE hosted Mr. Sam Donelson, PE, Chief Executive of AECOM’s U.S. East and Latin America Region, who gave an inspiring presentation on the technical dimensions of large-scale infrastructure projects. He spoke about design considerations, such as structural systems and sustainability; construction management techniques that ensure safety, quality, and schedule adherence; and program management strategies used to coordinate multiple disciplines and stakeholders on mega-projects.
On 11/5, together with TCNJ’s SWE and ASCE chapters, XE welcomed back two of our alumni, Charlotte Roarty (’23) and Owen Soler (’23). They presented a step-by-step workflow for site development and traffic analysis, illustrating key concepts with real-world case studies. Each project example showcased practical challenges and solutions, offering valuable insights into how engineering principles are applied.
Thank you to all the presenters for taking the time to talk to us!
Congratulations go to the following candidates for fulfilling the requirements and becoming eligible for induction into the XE chapter at TCNJ:

Our traditional Halloween corn maze race took place on October 25, bringing members, candidates, and alumni back to the Howell Farm Corn Maze. Congratulations go to Dora and Jill, our veteran team of XE alumni, who finished the maze in an impressive adjusted time of 29 minutes! First out of our rookie teams were Emily, Joey, and Jayson, who finished in an adjusted time of 51 minutes. It was a challenging race with an elusive puzzle piece #6, but all teams had a lot of fun and made it through. Happy Halloween, Everyone!

For the seventh consecutive year, TCNJ XE members and candidates came together to pack Halloween bags for first graders at Highland Park Elementary School in Upper Darby, PA. The students will receive coloring books, crayons, pencils, erasers, and playdough to supplement their schoolwork activities, as well as various Halloween toys and candy to help them celebrate the holiday. We are very proud to continue supporting our community through this service event! A special thanks goes to our alumna Olivia Williams (’20) for facilitating the connection with Highland Park Elementary’s teachers and students.
We made festive Halloween cards for each student!
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, TCNJ XE members and candidates volunteered on October 4th at the Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk event. We are proud to keep maintaining our participation, which has now become a tradition, and would like to thank everyone who helped set up the village today. We would also like to thank the organizers for continuing to trust us with this meaningful service opportunity.
TCNJ XE reinvested Kiva funds in support of Komron from Bokhtar, Tajikistan. Komron is a 19-year-old student, and this loan will help him continue his college education. This is our sixth reinvestment after we funded borrowers in Indonesia, Paraguay, Uganda, and Vietnam. We are proud to lead the TCNJ team in supporting students from various economic backgrounds in pursuit of their educational goals.
In partnership with the TCNJ XE Alumni Association, the TCNJ XE chapter organized the second annual Alumni Networking Event. The event took place on 9/13 with many alumni coming back to represent a diverse group of civil engineering employers. Over 30 junior and senior civil engineering students participated in a panel discussion about the professional expectations of early employment. Students also had the opportunity to speak with individual alumni and learn more about their companies and their personal professional experiences. We hope to continue this tradition in the future with even more alumni and employers participating. Thank you to all who made this event a success.
TCNJ XE started this semester with two events. We had some amazing local pizza and welcomed our fall candidates during the Invitation Social held on September 3rd, followed by the Ice Cream Social on September 5th. We are recharged and ready for the great semester ahead!
