Notes
This is a continuing series of quarterly articles on lessons learned and best practices in civil engineering education. The intent of the series is to reinforce good practices, describe new or developing practices, and provide a forum for what works well and what does not. It is hoped that this series will be an important quarterly read for all civil engineering educators and all those interested in what's going on in civil engineering education today. Writers and topics will vary from issue to issue. Contact the column editor, Steve Ressler, if you wish to contribute to an upcoming issue.
