Freddie Boland has worked on his project for about a year and a half, starting in his sophomore year. There have been very frustrating points, like having to make the scaffolding for the hydroponics systems, connecting the pipes, and having to drill into the ground. Despite these setbacks, he said: "It will be finished." He attributed the CASA and project-learning environment to the continuous progress on the project, and the many improvements. With regular classes, you can't work on projects like this.
