G&EnE Projects Day: 
G&EnE showcased the work of the Class of 2013 majors during Projects Day. Cadets displayed twenty-four posters in topics such as “Present and Future Spatial Distribution of Collisions in the Newburgh-Middletown Urban Area” (Cadets Benton Beltramo and Michael Williams), “The Aboriginal People of Taiwan: Maintaining the Culture through Radical Indigenism” (Cadet Alicia Dotson), “Solar Powered Chicken Coop in Rural Uganda” (Cadet Susan Kiernan), and “Wind Sock Representativeness and Terrain Effects: Fort Putnam and the North Dock Area” (EV387 Students). Cadets Justen Anka, Andrew Colvin, Matt Fitzgerald, and Lisa Kim presented their design project, “Composting on FOBs with Waste Shipping Containers,” along with a 3-D model, to judges for the Scott R. Clark Innovation for Soldiers Award. Additionally, two project teams from EV490, Advanced Environmental Engineering Design, met with the intellectual capital team from ARDEC (Picatinny Arsenal) and were invited to apply for patents.
MG390 Negotiation Simulation Exercise: Cadets enrolled in the BS&L course, “Negotiation for Leaders” (MG390) executed a negotiation simulation exercise on Constitution Island. Cadets were provided scenario information and prepared in advance. They were then evaluated in the conduct of bi-lateral and multi-lateral negotiations, which they conducted with role-players and with other cadets.
Dirtman Water Challenge: 
Cadets enrolled in EV401 (Physical and Chemical Treatment) competed in the annual DIRTMAN Water Challenge. Cadets applied their knowledge of processes commonly used in drinking water treatment to construct a small-scale treatment system. Each team of cadets was able to convert effluent from the Target Hill Waste Water Treatment Plant to meet US EPA Drinking Water Standards.
Brooklyn Environmental Remediation Site: 
Cadets enrolled in EV488 (Solid and Hazardous Waste Management) travelled to Brooklyn, NY to visit an ExxonMobil remediation site near Newtown Creek (a "superfund" site). The cadets were able to view a full scale remediation design that targets a large subsurface petroleum spill.
Bruce B. O’Neill Class of 1982 Memorial Cadet Orienteering Award: The Bruce B. O’Neill Award is presented each year to a cadet on the West Point Orienteering Team who demonstrates excellence in leadership and orienteering skills. This year’s winner is the Team Captain, Cadet Andrew Eck ‘13, Company F1. Cadet Eck placed 3rd at this year’s intercollegiate championships.
Camp Bucker Water Treatment Plant: 
Cadets enrolled in EV401 (Physical and Chemical Processes) conducted a lab at the Camp Buckner Water Treatment Plant (WTP) to complete a field survey of a water treatment “package plant.”
Orienteering Team Awarded at DCA Clubs Night: The Orienteering team was honored for earning the highest Competitive Club team average for both Academic Performance (team average 3.55) and Military Performance (team average of 3.41).
Scott Clark Award for Innovation: The Diagnostics on Demand engineering team lead by Cadets Christopher Wallace ‘13, Life Science, and Erik Hunstad ‘13, Computer Science, won the 2013 Clark Innovation for Soldiers Award at Projects Day. The award project was required to “demonstrate an innovative approach to solving a problem of direct application to the Army. [The award is designed] to encourage cadets to demonstrate for soldiers innovations which can benefit soldiers.” The cadet team designed and built a prototype device to assess the presence of metabolic disorders and infectious disease biomarkers in the biological samples from soldiers in the field. This device may lead to on-the-spot diagnosis of conditions affecting deployed soldiers in remote areas who don’t have access to physicians or advanced hospital care facilities. The goal of the team is to provide a robust, hand-held tool for small unit leaders to improve the health care support to their soldiers and the combat effectiveness of their unit.
