and Gordon Moore Lobby, Hearst Memorial Mining Building, on Wednesday,

Winners, winners
Here is the answer to last week’s brainteaser: The jeweler cut
four of the pieces into three pieces each and then cut the three remaining
pieces into four pieces each, and divided them accordingly. As of press
time, ME junior Joshua Bishop-Moser and AS&T graduate student Andrew
Aquila got it right, but EECS senior Cho Mon Kyaw sent the correct answer
first. Congrats Cho! Thanks everyone for submitting an answer.
The winner of the fall Genius Corner drawing is CEE senior Brian Yangyuen,
whose name was randomly drawn from all the brainteaser winners since
the beginning of the semester. Yangyuen wins two movie tickets courtesy
of Berkeley Engineering Alumni Relations! Finally, the winner of the
participants’ drawing, whose name was randomly drawn from all those
who submitted answers this semester, is EECS graduate student Erwin Lau!
Lau wins a Berkeley Engineering T-shirt and mug.
This is the last Engineering News of the fall semester. We’ll resume
publication in January. Happy Holidays!
