Physics Student to Present Pumpkin Drop

Join CSU, Chico’s Society of Physics students tomorrow as they present the Tenth Annual Pumpkin Drop.

Legend has it that Galileo Galilee demonstrated his Law of Falling Bodies by climbing to the top of the Tower of Pisa so that he could drop a large ball and a small ball at the same time. Both balls hit the ground together!

Physics students will reenact this great moment in the history of science using pumpkins. Come to the south side of Butte Hall at noon on Halloween, tomorrow, October 31. You are promised a smashing good time!
