Halloween was last week, and what is better than smashing pumpkins on the campus of 桃花社区视频 Dominion University? The annual Pumpkin Drop, sponsored by the 桃花社区视频 桃花社区视频 of Physics Students (SPS), has been a popular fall tradition for over two decades. This year the competition may have been the most intense ever. Each entrant - usually teams of students - was challenged to build a portable contraption that could "catch" a pumpkin dropped from atop the nine-story Batten Arts and Letters Building.
