Rodolfo Canales Garcia is a ma- terials engineering student at Insti- tuto Tecnologico de Morelia and vice president of the Board of Directors of the student chapter AIST-ITM. As a materials engineering student, Garcia has studied different manufacturing processes, and is particularly inter- ested in heat treatment. He considers himself as someone passionate about steels and everything related to their processes and prop- erties, including the use of heat treatment to modify their mechanical properties for different applications. SOLICITING PAPERS FOR ASM HTS/BODYCOTE BEST PAPER IN HEAT TREATING CONTEST The ASM HTS/Bodycote award was established by HTS in 1997 to recognize a paper that represents advance- ment in heat treating technology, promotes heat treating in a substantial way, or represents a clear advancement in managing the business of heat treating. The award is en- dowed by Bodycote Thermal Process-North America. The contest is open to all students, in full-time or part- time education, at universities (or their equivalent) or col- leges. It is also open to those students who have graduat- ed within the past three years and whose paper describes work completed while an undergraduate or post-graduate student. The winner receives a plaque and check for $2500. To view rules for eligibility and paper submission, visit hts.asminternational.org , Membership & Networking, and Society Awards. Paper submission deadline is March 1, 2021. Sub- missions should be sent to Mary Anne Jerson at maryanne. jerson@asminternational.org. NOMINATIONS SOUGHT FOR GEORGE H.

Ferdon worked for Duke Energy from 1982- 1985, and from 1985 to 1992, he worked for Williams Inter- national, initially as a failure analyst and later as an MSE group leader, supporting the design and development of small gas turbine engines for defense and civilian aero- space applications. In 1992, he joined the new Cummins Fuel Systems Business as a technical specialist in the three-person Materials Science Engineering organization that has grown into the Global Engineering Technology or- ganization of today. Chuck Faulkner joined Quak- er Houghton in 1983 and his current position is commercial develop- ment manager – heat treatment. He currently serves as ASM HTS Expo Committee co-chair, T&P Committee member, and co-chair for Heat Treat Mexico. Chuck has a B.A. in organiza- tional management from Eastern Col- lege, St. Davids, Pa. Marc Glasser is the director of metallurgical services for Rolled Al- loys. He has been with Rolled Alloys since 2012 and has worked in ma- terials science and engineering for 39 years. His experience includes extensive mill metallurgy roles in processes including rolling, forging, and powder metallurgy. He also has extensive experience in customer support engineering and served as the technical manag- er and heat treat applications development engineer for a specialty furnacemanufacturer. Glasser received his B.S. in materials engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Insti- tute and his M.S. in materials science from the NYU Tanden School of Engineering. Michael Brant is a metallurgical engineer at Contour in Indianapolis, a thermal processor and system build- er that specializes in induction and nitriding heat treatment processes. Brant develops and improves heat treatment procedures for contract processing, as well as R&D applica- tions, manages quality control for on- site metallurgical testing, and leads the development and application of magnetic particle in- spection. He has achieved a Level II Magnetic Particle Qual- ification of Nondestructive Testing and a Six Sigma Black 3 Faulkner Glasser Brant Garcia
