The intention of the blockscheduling was to, (a) reduce the level of traffic on campus as only half of the courses were offered ineach block; and (b) if one a block was able to finish with face-to-face instruction without beinginterrupted by a return to fully online instruction, the quality of that part of schoolwork would beprotected. While this consideration was well-intended, it required teaching plans to be completelyreworked, with the worry that instruction would be rushed without allowing students sufficient time todigest and absorb the content.Even

An opportunity arose to address both these issues by building anengine/chassis dynamometer.A funding request has been granted by a robotics company paving the way for design and build of anengine/chassis dynamometer. The dynamometer, in its first iteration, cost about $10,000 but a reviseddesign costs under $8,000. The dynamometer has been designed for Shell Eco Marathon competitionbut has found its uses in multiple projects over the past year, including a summer toboggan redesign fora local state park
