The students that chose to pursue thealternate lab project tended to be more creative or motivated than those that chose the traditionalproject. We believe this is due to the fact that the alternate lab took student agency further byencouraging students to create original ideas, songs, and images for their simple video games,with no two final projects ending with the same game or theme.Many student groups settled on the long-standing traditional project as a default, rather than ac-tively choosing the alternative.

Board members were asked to score boththe frequency and importance of various types of technical communications. The survey resultsare summarized in Table 1. The results affirm the importance and need for improvement in thecommunication skills of early career engineers. They expressed a desire for employees to
