While an undergraduate, Morris took ComputerScience 148, "Introduction to VLSI Design," anddid a project on UNIX security as part of hiscourse requirements...
Last week the Federal Aviation Administration proposed a rule requiring airlines to shore up their older 737s by replacing the 7,200 rivets on each plane's fuselage. "It's time to fix design weaknesses rather than continuing to inspect for flaws," said Anthony Broderick of the FAA. "It is a fundamental shift in our way of operating." Safety experts predicted that the ruling would eventually be extended to other aircraft that are 25 years old or older...
...Ohio's Feed Materials Production Center in Fernald, a uranium-processing plant, the innocent-sounding name and the red-and-white checkerboard design on a water tower led some nearby residents to think it produced cattle feed or pet food. They have learned, to their dismay, that not only was the facility fabricating uranium rods for nuclear-reactor fuel cores and components for warheads, but one of its even scarier outputs was radioactive pollution. Marvin Clawson, 59, who lives near the plant, blames its operators for the fact that his wife Doris has had surgery for cancer three times...
...crystalline form. For the next three years, at Huber's direction, the researchers used X-ray crystallography to determine the structure of the protein cluster's 10,000 atoms. The laborious research opens the possibility that someday scientists will be able to produce solar cells that mimic the design of photosynthesizing molecules...
...disappointed that more students in the College do not cross-register and take GSD courses and seminars, most of which are open to undergraduates without any prerequisites. He cited the lack of GSD course listings in the undergraduate course catalog as one reason why few undergraduates take architecture and design classes...
