College of Engineering and Computer Science

Professor Sam Clemence is putting plenty of faith in his students. As part of the final project for his ECS 101 class, Clemence walks, very slowly, on top of their final projects. He hopes they don’t break. That’s because these are bridges constructed by students who hope the spans will support the weight of Clemence and one other student.
