This past week’s meeting got a little behind and ran a little long, so sorry for that everyone, I hope we didn’t screw up anyone’s Valentine’s Day plans! Nevertheless, I hope everyone enjoyed the sustainability study and learned a little about building efficiency. There are two major contributors to optimize a building’s sustainability. Siting a […]
Soo, the burning question on everyone’s (or just my) mind…anyone get lost on the way to Cannon’s office?

In case anyone missed the meeting, I think it’s safe to say that the “shake table”
Ah, again, a meeting I wish I wouldn’t have missed. It’s always fun watching the blind leading the blind, especially when it comes to mixing food coloring and water.

Finally, our project actually gets started. Keeping in mind with the site analysis we’ve performed, we started throwing out a bunch of ideas at last week’s meeting as to what should eventually occupy our site. We had a lot of interesting ideas being thrown around: amusement park, dinosaur farm, scientific research facility, bowling alley, zombie
Wow, those deadlines really get in the way of some good ol’ blog writin’ time. Sorry for the delay, I’ve been really busy researching cats, I mean working a lot. So, last week concluded the last of our discipline overviews. If you happened to miss last week’s meeting, we covered Engineering, and we covered a
