The Engineering Student Council has been planning E-Week, a national celebration of engineers, for months.

"So it's usually very hectic and planning is a couple months in advance. Once we get down to it, it seems a little difficult but it really pulls itself together and this year it did," said Heidi Ahmed, Secretary Student Life.

"I really enjoyed it. The opening ceremonies, the guest speakers were very impressive and eloquent. It made me glad I was an engineer," said Zachary Bullart

With at least one event per night, SEAS students had plenty of activities to choose from including a Blender, Speed Networking and a Mixer.

"A night out at Campo for all engineering students, we have, currently going on right now, actually is battle of the band," said Heidi.

As part of the E-Week experience, students can also participate in the annual tradition of CU Assassins which takes over campus. Students practice their creativity and ingenuity and try to acquire kills by shooting each other with water guns.

"I can't, you know, say all the stories that have been told about these kills but they've been pretty extravagant, like people go on spring break and kill each other," said David, senior in SEAS.

With Closing Ceremonies and a Battle of the Bands back in Roone Arledge, the students sat back to enjoy their free pizza and the kick-off of CU Assassins to mark the end of a successful E-Week.

"The goal of the week is just to celebrate being engineers for us because it's a really stressful position but all of us are kind of pulled together by this common theme of being an engineer," said Heidi.
