Two students joke as they work on their masks. The first project involved creating a mask that demonstrates certain personal characteristics.
Conceptualization and the final product.

Many students took some time to think about what is unique about themselves before starting to make the mask.

Student Justin Washburn shows off the first stage of his mask.
One of the finished masks.
Another mask.
Students discuss their masks after a session of showcasing them for each other.

Students must work in groups and create a method of transporting water and a balloon thirty feet into a 16 oz. cup.

One student had a couple unfortunate accidents with her balloons.
We're unsure whether or not this was an accident. Our official position, however, is that Dan is most certainly wet.
Many groups decided to make a "gutter" in order to transport the balloon.
These girls are hoping that their high starting point will give their balloon enough momentum to make it to the cup.
What can we say? Sometimes architecture can be tiring.
This was the only group that didn't put water inside the balloon. Instead, they used it to propel a balloon filled with air down their gutter.
Need a little more height? Why not sit on someone's shoulders. Very innovative.
While this cardboard car may have had a little trouble driving straight, it did move on its own accord.
This group insisted on building a boat, so the students ended this project at Ball State's famous Frog Baby fountain.
Well, it's time for dinner. Oh, wait, what's he saying? Clean up?!?
A large line waits to get preliminary sketches approved for the Egg Drop Project. Three stories, thirty feet, ten meters; however you want to look at it, it's a long way for an egg to fall.
Is that a flowerpot? Sounds like this student meets the criteria that the egg also have a good time.
While most students are opting to use balloons in order to brace their egg's fall, this student is also using some fruit to cushion the fall. Do you think she has something for orange?
This student's egg is being shipped, complete with its own mail-order bride. At least the egg will have company.
What a perfect example of recycling! Taking someone else's car from the balloon project and using it for the egg project. This student will fit in very well at environment friendly Ball State. Let's hope it has airbags.
Students watch from below as an egg is dropped from the third floor of the architecture building.
A lot of students made various efforts to keep their eggs safe with parachutes and plastic bottles.
Not every device worked. Obviously.
