Geniuses and winners

The “official” answer to last week’s brainteaser is 200 miles but, as many EN readers pointed out, there are multiple correct solutions. Kudos to: EECS/BioE senior Michael Le, ME freshman Bryce Kelford, EECS senior Abhishek Karwa, EECS junior Jeff Jensen, Chem freshman Eric Isaacs, Environmental Engineering Science senior Gordon Mei, Math sophomore Janet Luo, IEOR sophomore Bryan Clark, ME senior Steven Leung, ME senior Samnang Bou and ME junior Danny Fong! Stay tuned for next issue’s brainteaser.

We’ll be announcing a new promotional campaign in the next issue with a “stimulating” offer. Keep reading!
