☀️🌑 Eclipse excitement on Slavin Lawn! 🌑☀️ Friars witnessed the awe-inspiring beauty of Monday’s solar eclipse with Student Activities and the Department of Engineering and Physics. It really eclipsed expectations. https://t.co/IUtPdASIid

A small group from @ProvidenceCol up in Burlington for the eclipse. Weather is great and sun is looking… blocked!

2. Julio Valdez - 63ft4in

3. Dylan Mitchell - 62ft1in

We have discovered many ways to fold an airplane that does NOT fly more than a few feet…

[PC Engineering and Physics @EPS_PC]

And we are off!!! Come to Peterson and toss an airplane! @ProvidenceCol
