Congratulations to electrical engineering PhD students Benjamin Thompson and Jenna Rutowski for winning the Best Student Paper Award at the 157thAudio Engineering Society convention. They were recognized for their paper “A Survey of Methods for the Discretization of Phonograph Record Playback Filters,” which they authored along with recent alumnus Tre DiPassio ’23 and Associate Professor Michael Heilemann. 

They accepted the award at the convention’s opening ceremony on October 8. This continues a great run for our students, who have won top student paper at the convention three times since 2017.
