After several meetings at Calvin College, a group of 11 students elected to take their Engineering 202 and a second course in the German language in Bremen, Germany during the summer of 2007. This program is led by Professor Sykes who will also be accompanied by his spouse, Mrs. Nyna Sykes (Business Manager-Christian Classics Ethereal Library, CCEL.com).
On April 22, the students gathered at Professor and Mrs. Sykes’ home for some refreshments, a few (more!) administrative details for the trip and courses, and an opportunity to get to know each other better. The students are: Lisa Andela, Lindsay Arnold, Steve Brink, Katrina Denny, Tim Hirschberg, Ian Hoffbeck, Elizabeth (Betsy) Huyser, Tom Kok, Jon Lotton, Doug Spencer, and Danny VanderSpek; due to an earlier, very important personal committment Betsy Huyser could not join us.
Upon finishing the Spring 2007 semester, all prepared to regather at Calvin College on 9 July for 4 days of Statics and Dynamics, before flying to Bremen on July 13.
