  <title><![CDATA[ISyE Professors, Students Gauge Debris Cleanup in Haiti]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>On Friday, May 28, 2010, Jim Burress, reporter/ host with WABE/NPR 90.1, 
interviewed Ozlem Ergun, associate professor in the School of Industrial and 
Systems Engineering (ISyE) and co-director of the Center for Health and 
Humanitarian Logistics, about her recent trip to Haiti. Ergun, along with Julie 
Swann, ISyE associate professor and Center co-director; Reginald DesRoches, 
School of Civil &amp; Environmental Engineering (CEE); and students Jessica 
Heier Stamm (ISyE), Kael Stilp (ISyE), and Josh Gresha (CEE) traveled to Haiti 
in May to look at debris collection and removal issues there. What they found 
was that most Haitians are using little more than their own hands to remove 
decimated homes and buildings."Although essential," states Ergun, "debris 
collection is an afterthought." &gt;&gt;<a href="http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/wabe/news.newsmain/article/1/0/1656579/Atlanta/Ga.Tech.Professors..Students.Gauge.Debris.Cleanup.in.Haiti">Listen to the entire segment:&nbsp;</a></p>]]></body>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
