Egg Drop w/ the Undergraduate Physics Mentoring Program
September 28 @ 1:00 pm–3:30 pm
Come test your crafting and engineering skills at the UGMP Egg Drop! You and your team will have two hours to create a contraption from provided materials, capable of safely delivering the egg from the Physics Courtyard Balcony to the Burke-Gilman Trail below. Teamwork is encouraged: come with your team or be ready to make new friends. Shelters will be judged in two categories: durability and creativity of design. Prizes include some serious bragging rights.
Schedule:
1-3 pm Drop-in crafting session; stay for however long it takes to prepare your shelter. Supplies are first-come first-served.
3-3:30 pm Dropping and judging sessions begin; be sure to catch this high-energy portion of the event.
The Undergraduate Physics Mentoring Program is an RSO dedicated to building community and demystifying physics by foregrounding resources for undergrads at any stage in their UW journey. Whether you are a first year student interested in the major or a physics veteran, we provide a space to connect and have fun through mentor-mentee pairings and regular social events.
