Stephen Fogg - The Battalion
Senior agricultural engineering major Christopher Rodie fires a trebuchet, the result of a group project in his biological and agricultural engineering 265 class Thursday on West Campus. Rodie's group worked on the project during three weeks worth of lab sessions and even used software simulations to fine tune their trebuchet. Their goal was to be able to fling a 1-pound projectile 150 feet at their instructor, Cady Engler, with consistent accuracy.
