Wadach Blames Defeat on Admissions


John Wadach, chair of the Engineering Science and Physics Department, felt the agony of defeat after his balsa wood bridge finished a distant seventh at the Engineering Leadership Council’s annual bridge building contest. Engineering Science students John Chiou (School Without Walls), Jon Hladchuk (Schoharie HS), and Jared Green (Brighton HS) captured the top three places.

In a post competition interview, Wadach blamed his defeat on Andy Freeman and the Admissions Office when he remarked, “ if Admissions didn’t enroll so many talented students into our program I might have had a chance of winning!”

A video of the competition may be viewed
