CAMPUS CONNECTION: EDWIN JACOBSON

Every few weeks we will be featuring a current engineering student in our series titled “Campus Connection.” We will ask various students the same set of campus related questions to highlight the students’ favorite parts of being a Boilermaker. Here is our first post in the series!
