The Fling 2011

On September 17th, 2011, the JMU School of Engineering will launch the The 2011 FLING Extreme challenge!  New this year, FLING teams will design, build, test and launch the stuffed “Duke Dog” in one day! 

The FLING is now part of the ENGR 101 curriculum.  Because we have 124 enrolled freshman, we expect approximately 21 FLING teams! 

Agenda

Teams arrive, design, build and test devices. Materials provided for the build include: PVC pipe, surgical tubing, duct tape, bungee cords, etc. 

12:30 p.m.- 1:30 p.m.
Lunch (pizza and drinks)

1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Teams compete.  Winners from each section go to the finals!

Come on out and watch your fellow students FLING the stuffed Duke Dog!
