SCHOOL
As most of you already know,  I currently attend the University of Louisiana - Lafayette majoring in Civil Engineering.  I currently have a 3.2 GPA and am involved  in two groups:  Chi Epsilon Honor Society and ASCE (American Society of Civil Engineers).

We compete in two competitions throughout the year, a steel bridge and concrete canoe.  Currently I am on the concrete canoe team.  We compete nationally in these two catergories, this year the competition will be held at Ole Miss University.  Basically, we design a canoe made of a lightweight but durable concrete.  Then we put it in water with two rowers and race against others.

This is a model of the canoe before the concrete is put over it.


This is a picture of the concrete being put over the wood model.


This is last years steel bridge.
