I know there are a few CE students on here and I was wondering if anyone else just took the foundations test.

I spent equal parts of the test laughing and crying.

I just graduated in December and never took the class. Is that with Rehmann?

How much time in the fetal position, or flinging poop at a wall?

yeah, I didn't think it would be that ridiculous if it was Rehmann. Welp, good luck

WWKTD? You need to shape up!

(PS Do they still make a big deal of how Karl Terzaghi is the "father of soil mechanics" in a semi-religious way during CE 360?)

Vern Schaefer does and he's my Capstone adviser, so I've taken the liberty of working Terzaghi into my design summary about a dozen times.

I've always known him as a geo guy. Taught 460 last semester. Never had him as an environmental professor.

Maybe there are two with the same name. Is the one you are talking about no longer there? I only see 1 Rehmann in the online directory, and he definitely doesn't teach geotech.

No, I'm talking about Chris. The only class I had him for was the 0 credit graduating senior class but I thought he was the geotech advisor for capstone. It might have been hydrology.

I guess the main point still stands, he is a great teacher. I only had him for one class but he was prob my favorite.

He seemed like a really good guy. Never full of himself and always willing to help a student.

Ah, great. I loved that guy. Hard to believe it's been about 5 years since I was in his class during my junior year.
