“Nothing was practically accomplished at the meeting. Ideas were discussed.”
Mention something about how it’s a social event. In Engineers Without Borders, every other off-week, we have a meeting that’s focused on community building. It’s the same sort of deal.
To that other electrical engineering major (who tagged along to the EA Madison event), I would now say, “It’s like going to a technical conference. People going to an Altium (industry standard for PCB design software) conference are going to discuss and learn Altium. Specialized language is occationally used. Certain parameters are more commonly known by these professionals (and sometimes students). Altium by itself is to do a specific job, such as designing the board in a cell phone. The purpose of the conference is not to make cell phone PCBs.”

Conclude with something about the GWWC pledge.
