(Brown Daily Herald) (U-WIRE) PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- During the first few days of the semester, Brown students may have seen a four-foot by eight-foot hovercraft floating on the grass in front of Technology House, located in Harkness House.

When Scott Frazier '00 and Nicholas Lochmatow '01 asked a local hovercraft enthusiast whether they could build this vehicle in less than a month, he replied, "It can't be done."

But within three weeks of averaging six to eight hours of work each day, these undergraduates built a machine that could float effortlessly across the ...
