Civil engineering cadets in the Soil Mechanics and Foundation Design course participated in a trip section as part of Moles Student Day. The Moles organization (http://www.themoles.info/) is composed of individuals now or formerly engaged in the construction of tunnels, subways, sewers, or other heavy construction projects, both in the New York City area and around the world. The group hosts an annual Students Day, during which students studying geotechnical engineering are invited to tour some of the largest construction sites in the metro New York City area. This year, nearly 400 civil engineering students from 20 different academic institutions boarded a Circle Line Cruise boat in New York City and headed north to tour the Tappan Zee Bridge construction site. This $3.9B projected is slated for completion in 2018.
