ROAD WORK: Dustin Canzonieri ’11, a mechanical engineering major from Plainview, N.Y., and other members of the University’s Society for Automotive Engineers demonstrated their engineering—and driving—skills with strong finishes this spring during the national society’s Baja car season. The Hajim School team placed 36th out of 89 teams at the Baja Carolina competition, hosted by Clemson University, and the team was 23rd out of 70 at the Rochester World Challenge, hosted by RIT. Cars in the competition are judged on design, cost, acceleration, and other factors.
