Last UD Bill

Yesterday, I paid my last UD bill which consisted of my graduation fee. As graduation approaches, many of my "lasts" at UD are sad or bittersweet. But the last student bill was something I certainly didn't feel bad about!

I finally heard back from Illinois, the third and final graduate school that I applied to. I was accepted, but my decision will be between Georgia Tech and Berkeley. Both schools definitely have their pros and cons which I will weigh over the next couple weeks.

The steel bridge is coming right along. We load tested it in the civil lab at UD, and some of the welded connections failed. We have all those fixed up now, and the bridge is being painted this week. It's hard to believe that the competition is just over a week away! No matter what happens, putting a bridge together again this year has been a lot of fun. I'm pretty sure that our bridge can hold the 2,500 pounds that will be applied to it at the competition. If we can get our construction time down, we might have a shot at nationals again.
