School Projects

Education The Second Door to Freedom by Clarence Thomas, Associate Justice, US Supreme Court: " Each of us here will have that one moment in time when all that we have learned and all that we are will be called upon and required. None of us knows exactly what that challenge is or when it will occur. But taking advantage of all (that) college has to offer will allow each student here to assert, with conviction, as Abraham Lincoln did: "I will prepare myself, and when the time comes, I will be ready"

High Density Development by Andy Stout: "In the wake of urban revitalization and post-Katrina condensing, New Orleans will likely experience an exacerbated trend of high-density development."

Low Income Housing Development by Steven Plzak: "Through the use of component multiplicity and controlled variation, individual living spaces can be reduced down to their most basis forms."

Media Center by Stacy West: "Both interior and exterior spaces are proportional creating a balance between inside and out."

Model Bridge Design by Garrett Boon: "Bridge designers must watch for torsion and try to reduce it as much as possible."

Organic Iteration by Blake Fisher: "This model was derived from an initial image of some kind of organic object that the professor handed out on the first day."

Launch! by Dave Protti: "Students realize the sum of their efforts and the laws of physics when they witness their rockets accelerating skyward on launch day, not to mention the emotions involved in ownership and the risks of actually flying their creation."

Squeeze Play by Daniel McLean: "Three young men and one young lady who are all A or B students have painted over 400 individual model soldiers and each soldiers individual equipment. They also designed the base for the battle."

Terrible Swift Sword by Chuck Thiedel: "So the teacher has spoken. You need to construct a diorama, or small scene, for your history class. Do not panic. Many people have done this before, and have come through with satisfying results. These hints will make the task easier, and your experience will be much more enjoyable. So all that is needed is a good imagination, and the willingness to learn about the subject matter."
