All About the E
E-Week 2008 began with E-lympics and a pancake feed to rev up
Nebraska Engineering students with energy to carry them through
the week’s activities and into finals that followed.
E-Week, in its 95th year as a celebration of Nebraska Engineering, also
included such traditions as the “kick-off with a keg (of root beer)” and
quiz bowl tournament. The week added some new twists, like a Halo
Tournament for fans of the video game.
Friday’s Open House concluded this year’s festivities,
with hundreds of high school students and community
members viewing Nebraska Engineering presentations
at the research fair and senior design competition. The
guests caught the spirit and joined in to design and build
ping-pong ball launchers and protective devices for an
egg drop off the roof of Othmer Hall.
