Tau Beta Pi will be exhibiting at the April 18th KTU!

Virginia Tech is home to the Virginia Beta chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the National Engineering Honor Society. Our chapter currently has around 100 members from all of the different engineering disciplines. We participate in many service projects, such as Relay for Life, the Big Event, and now Kids' Tech University!

Tau Beta Pi will have two booths during the April 18th, 2009 Kids' Tech University:

1) Stop by there Circuit Board booth to build a circuit board and light up an LED light! By testing different resistors on breadboards, the kids will learn how to build a circuit.

2) Origami Catapults: Make a catapult out of origami paper to demonstrate how pulling the tabs of the catapult with different forces will create different forces to shoot a paper ball.
