Balance
Engineering students hanging out on North Campus during SpringFest 2008
Being an Engineer is a lot of work, but it makes all the things outside of work that much more fun! As you will read in these blogs, there are an endless amount of things to do on campus: from hearing the Dalai Lama talk, to attending a show organized by one of the many acapella groups or the University Musical Society, or catching a Michigan Football game on the weekend! You will learn how to balance your time, so that you can get your work done and have fun too!

My Life as a Michigan Engineer
By Anne Griffin '09, Industrial and Operations Engineering on Thursday, January 22nd, 2009Today was the first day of classes…we had a group building activity where we built towers from Tinker Toys. We had 20 minutes to think of a plan on how to build the tallest tower, and only one minute to assemble the tower.
Smoothies and Spoons
By Alex Holbel '10, Electrical Engineering on Sunday, January 11th, 2009Classes are a lot of work. They’re hard. They’re time consuming. And they just never seem to end. Yet, if you were to ask me, I would say that college has been the most fun and exciting time of my life… the secret is smoothies and spoons.
