GBS Takes on IVD Challenge

GBS teachers Neil Schmidgall, Mike Stancik, Steve Kornick, and Lee Fiorio have led students in the IVD Challenge last year and this year. Students Michael Hall(Sr.), Samantha Kane(Sr.), Sean Grandfield(Sr.), Dan Uhler(Jr.), Matt Krueger(Jr.), Nolan Henrickson(So.), and Stephen Hansen(So.) have partnered with GBS grad Tom King, a product engineer with ITW, and Engineering Professor Dave Geller from Oakton C.C.



During the October 5th weekend they had a very successful performance run in Detroit. During the week of October 13th they will be showing off their car to over 300 Attea and Springman students. Work is still ongoing as students will now add the GPS portion along with a set of informational LEDs and ITW's switch. Good luck to the team as they then head to the Convergence Conference in Detroit from October 20, 2008 through October 22, 2008 to show their car to real automotive engineers. Thank you to our teachers, ITW and Oakton C.C. for making this opporunity available for our students.
