Abstract/Summary

As Cal Poly transitions from the quarter system to the semester system, aligning itself with the other California universities, the idea has been proposed to commemorate this moment in the history of the university with a time capsule. The time capsule will be on display on the first floor of the library for a few years and later moved into the library’s archive room for permanent storage. 50 years after the completion of the semester conversion project, the time capsule will be opened. This project aims to create a secure and aesthetic device capable of storing and protecting memorabilia from the semester conversion project for the full 50 years. It is designed in accordance with all specifications requested by the sponsor. This is accomplished by the senior project team, advised by Dr. Hyeonik Song, and sponsored by Dr. Rachel Fernflores.
