I had quite a few episodes of déjà vu during the ASPE Technical Symposium Oct. 1-4 at the Hyatt Regency in St. Louis.
On Oct. 2, I sat in the audience of the Ethics in Plumbing Engineering panel discussion and I felt as if I was back in journalism school at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Just as when I sat in a room with fellow prospective journalists, a near-full room of 30 engineers and industry professionals discussed the ethical issues they face during the course of a project and beyond.
