In 2008, the U.S. Congress authorized the Secretary of Defense to conduct a program to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War (November 1, 1955 – May 15, 1975**). By Presidential Proclamation, the Commemoration extends from Memorial Day 2012 to Veterans Day 2025. The primary objective of the Commemoration is to thank and honor Vietnam veterans and their families on behalf of the nation for their service and sacrifice. The four remaining objectives highlight the service of our Armed Forces and support organizations during the war; pay tribute to wartime contributions at home by American citizens; highlight technology, science and medical advances made during the war; and recognize contributions by our Allies.

The Art 110 3D Design class has been constructing vehicles to protect an egg when dropped off the side patio of the PUB. Come watch as we drop our eggs and see which designs successfully protect the eggs. We’ll be dropping the eggs off the patio by the northwest door at 12:45 p.m. on Mon., May 22.
Making use of course material and using design elements and principles to create a good-looking vehicle has been stressed over protecting the egg, so it’s likely to get messy!
