Dozens of local high school students will be welcomed on Elon University's campus Feb. 23 to compete in Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathemathics and Science, a competition coinciding with National Engineers Week. "This is an opportunity for high school students to explore engineering and decide if they want to pursue it in college or for a career," said Sirena Hargrove-Leak, an engineering professor at Elon and the main faculty sponsor of the event. The competition itself will consist of two exams that students will complete in teams of five to eight.
Although Elon University is making a large push for sustainability, some students are calling for even more action by students, staff and faculty. The Sierra Club recently released the 2011 Coolest School rankings.

The Wall Street Journal is a journalistic institution. First published in 1889, the same year as Elon's founding, it is one of the nation's most widely-read and well-respected journalistic institutions. But last week, despite the growing number of Occupy Wall Street protesters, the paper offered little coverage, and certainly not front-page real estate, to the thousands who had taken to marching, chanting and carrying signs decrying the financial industry and blaming it for the state of the American economy.
