| CLIMBING THE WALLS . . . Classes had yet to begin, but 500
first-year Kate Gleason College of Engineering students were already
climbing the walls during Engineering Day 2003 on Sept. 2. In addition
to rock climbing, activities at Long Acre Farms in Macedon included
traversing a corn maze and finding clues to build “flying machines”
to mark this year’s 100th anniversary of flight. “Our goal
was to engage the students, team-build and have a memorable day. We
achieved that and more and a good time was had by all,” says
Harvey Palmer, dean of the Kate Gleason College of Engineering. |
