Schedule

For the semester in Brad's class, our main focus was to create a group project dealing with the environment, or to be more specific, environmental issues. My group consisted of 4 classmates and myself. (Joseph Tran, Catherine Ma Ai Poirier, Marie-Joelle Gingras, Sophie Girard) We came up with the idea of touching a little bit of everything, creating beautiful man made boxes and exposing environmental problems to the society. Here is the link for our group project:
