Time again for UBC's Engineering follies...

"E" week is back...

So where are we going to find the little red Volkswagen this year? ;-)

... or is the city beginning to tire of the Engineers' annual gag?

Maybe they'll put it at CKPM.

Oh yeah, nobody would see it.

Didn't they used to use actual beetles.... not just the shells they throw over the sides of bridges today.

Using a REAL one would show some engineering smarts!

Truth is... the stunt with the car isn't even an original UBC idea...
They borrowed it... from the Engineers at Cambridge in the UK...
