Missouri college students compete in Solar Decathlon

[ccharles000]

A team of college students from Missouri is among 20 entries taking part in what is known as the Solar Decathlon in Washington, D.C. It’s a competition in which teams of college and university students compete to design, build, and operate what turns out to be the most attractive and energy-efficient solar-powered house.

Missouri’s contingent is made up primarily of students from Missouri University of Science and Technology, but includes students from the University of Missouri -Columbia.

“We have 11 of us from Missouri S&T and about three or four from the University of Missouri that come in for a couple of days and either help with the decorating or a little bit of the architecture,” said Sara Shafer, the public relations officer for the Missouri entry.

4. Watch it there! My daughter and son-in-law graduated from MST

(formerly U of Mo Rolla). It is a damn fine university--at the top of anyone's list of great science and technical schools.

They are both electrical engineers. What are you, besides being an @hole?
