SCOPE Stories Week 6: Chairs and the Acronym

We rearranged our space today. Boeing had the smallest space and wanted more room because they're building a large model of part of their project. (Quote from this afternoon: "We built a jungle gym!") We agreed to move over the dividing wall between us. When we did, we also pushed our two tables together. That required taking the wheels off of one of them so that they'd be the same height. We also finally got rid of our extra chairs. We now have five, four for us to use most of the time and one at our workstation, whereas we'd had ten before. I'm not sure how the four person team ended up with ten chairs...

We took a break this afternoon to visit The Acronym, Olin's free coffee and tea shop. It's right outside the library, mostly student run with some faculty and staff support, open for two hours on Wednesday afternoons, and also features baked goods provided by students, faculty, and staff. It was a fun break. We got to hang out with people outside of our team, including faculty; I was able to talk to some faculty I don't get to see often.

I continue to learn more about Matlab than I ever wanted to know, but the user interface is almost done and is working wonderfully, so now I'm actually pretty excited about/proud of the code.
