The ingenuity of engineering students…
This is a fun story about a Kettering University student who built a mini-tank with the help of his frat brothers. Its ammo includes paintballs, golf balls, and empty Red Bull cans!
The story (both written and video) are at the Flint Journal, here:

It reminds me of the frat house at the University of Michigan that had the highest GPA in the Greek System, Phi Kappa Tau. Many of them were engineering students, and there was also David, the budding entrepreneur who started a perfume factory in the basement. “Nerds” have fun hobbies.
