7:30 Tonight 105 Dartmouth Hall
Distinguished Professor of Mechanical Engineering Walter Bradley (bio below) will
show how scientific discoveries over the past 60 years reveal a
finely-tuned universe uniquely suited to life. Bring your questions
for the Q&A.
Sponsored by Integrare and Fellowship of Christian Athletes at Dartmouth.
----------------------------------------------
Walter Bradley, Ph.D. earned his doctorate in materials engineering
from University of Texas at Austin. He taught at Colorado School of
Mines and Texas A&M University, becoming chairman of its Mechanical
Engineering department, overseeing 65 professors, 40 staff, 1500
students, and a budget of $14 million per year. After taking early
retirement in 1999, Walter was offered a Distinguished Professorship
to establish the graduate program in Engineering at Baylor University.
In 2004, his research into rural Third World electrification along
the equator using coconut bio-diesel fuel led to an unexpected
breakthrough, opening a potentially vast market of First World
manufacturing applications for highly-engineered composite materials,
and a start-up company (http://www.wholetreeinc.com/). This has
major economic implications for 10 million poor coconut farmers along
the equatorial region who subsist on an average income of $500 per
year. He has spoken and written for decades on questions of the
existence of God viewed through the lens of modern science.
