Expert Lecture #5

Today Jackie Bastardi from Curious on Hudson came in and told us about being a mechanical engineer. She said engineering is a lot of fun. There are lots of  projects you can do. Once, there was a 3D designing competition, and the winner gets their model design 3D printed. She also told us a lot about stories of her career. The “Gallopin’ Gertie” was also mentioned throughout the talk. It was about a bridge that collapsed because of the winds. In the end, we all made kazoos. It had popsicle sticks, straws, and paper. The paper vibrates to make the sound. I had a fun experience.
