COLLEGE STUDENT GROUP BUILD...(rules page 2!)

She has not built a model in many years. Sorry friend.

 By rules I pretty much meant the start and end date, lol. Everything else is pretty much spoken for by every other GB.

I'll make a go of it.  Any rules on what accepted models are?

Perhaps tanks painted in school colors?

I've got three 'finals' left, although one is a take home essay test that is supposed to end up at ~17 pages long :'(, a 5 page essay take home , and an oral/spoken exam on tuesday...

On another note, my school's mascot was voted 2nd for mascot bestness by ESPN last year;

The Concordia College Cobber, its a giant, angry, ear of corn!  I'd love to have one of those sitting in a TC hatch...;)

I think that'd be a cool idea, except some people probably don't have mascots....cough, Roanoke College, cough

But I think that'd definately be a neat twist.

Can I make a suggestion about the dates? You crazy kids on semesters have a long time... I've got 10 weeks on quarters. How about we start some time in January and end in May? As for building for the school Mascot, I'd build a nut.A buckeye to be exact. We could build something to do with the state that our school come from, maybe...

Report card time:

Math 415: B-
Physics 133: B
Comparative Studies 405: A
Welding Engineering Survey 300: A-

Any other brave souls dare to sharre?

I'll share my report card.

MSIS 2103 A

AVED 3513 A

AVED 4353 A

AVED 4703 A

AVED 3231 A

AVED 2142 I Commercial Flight Lab, its hard to fly 100 hours in a semester, ut almost there , checkride in a few weeks. which will make the I an A

lol

US History 175: B

Concepts of Physics 101: D+

GST 201 Humanities: D

I'm a history major so at least I can get good grades in what I'm planning on majoring in. Physics the grade was expected and couldn't be helped that much. Humanities is pretty much my fault but oh well, live and learn, its a new semester in a month and I've learned my lessons.

 Starting in Jan./Feb. would suit me fine, what subjects are valid? Are figures OK?   

Here is a extract of my grades

MA1201        MVG

MA1202        MVG

MA1203        VG

MA1206        VG    

FY 1202        MVG 

HI 1201        G  

IDH 1202      IG

OK, I looked...
Abnormal Psychology, A
Theories of personality, A
Social Research, B+
Physiological Psychology, A
Social Inequality,A
WooHoo!

I'm to lazy to look.  When are we gona start, what are the paramiters, what can we build, how long do we have, etc etc etc.

I cant wait till next semester, only one non music class, its t/r in the morning, my first class, the rest of the semester is spent in the music building, which is great, thats where my isntruments, and my tea is.

This is of topic  (( Voidses wrote:

Which would be where, by the way?))

 -That would be in northen Europe, Sweden to be more precise. It's a gr8 place if you like snow, raindeers, fika (drink coffe and eat something with sugar), LAN and building models.

And most important of all the moose  

Hälsningar från Europa!

Greetings from Europe!         

My school mascot is a lightning bolt...We are the stormers, from a local tech college here in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I am glad that this symester is over! No more getting up at 5:30 to catch a 6:18 bus to catch a 8:00 math class, then sit around for 3 hours till my next class starts.

 Ill post my grades.

math-C

Tech drafting 3-B

inventor basics-A

physics-A

I am majoring in Mechanical Design. My school has a deal with MSOE "Milwaukee School of Engineering" that when i graduate with my current program, i will go into MSOE as a jr. Im thinking of taking up the offer, the only issue is that their tuition is HIGH.

I only know one grade...which was actually my easiest class (you just had to show up...)

MS110, Physical Training, A

The rest are probably A's and B's...about time too, because econ, physics, and math courses took big bites out of my GPA. 

Running an hour straight isn't as hard as one would think. I don't want to make it sound easy, cuz it's not...but a lot of it is mental (well being in shape helps a lot! lol). During cross country my senior year I found it really hard to run even 10k (I was way out of shape though). But once you start and mentally decide youre going to do it, its alot easier.

Anyways....rules. I've come up with some ground rules with some suggestions...

Whatever model you build, it has to relate to your college/university, whatever...

examples would be: painting the model your school colors, putting your school mascot or name on the model...stuff of that nature. Be creative.

Build will begin when classes begin.
Build will end when classes end.

How do these sound for ground rules? Please post ideas adding/subtracting to these!

hmm

Nevermind on the rules then. I guess it can just be free for all. Build what you want sort of thing...

IMO going for a year isn't a good idea though...maybe making it last into the summer, but I would really prefer not to have the build go into next year. It actually makes a lot more sense now...not having it end when classes do...give people a chance to go home and use stuff they cant use in their dorms...but I really really dont like the idea of having the build last a year long. I think max time would have to be until beginning of August.

Shouldn't it be Ok if the models has a connection to the school you go to? I mean it could mean anything:

You got a teatcher that likes Mustangs? Or did you write an essay about Kursk?

This way we can build almost what we want, but the models still has a story behind them.

Just my  

Voidses you make an interesting proposition, one that's been in my head but couldn't really define (i know, pretty easy to define, brain farts i guess)...How does everybody else feel about that?

THe build must connect with your college career/education somehow...however loosely, and you must tell the story of how...and try to make it interesting as well?
