"It went very well, a lot better than last year," said Kristina Daggett, Columbus, Ohio, sophomore and chairwoman of the event. "We had more contestants, more prizes and a bigger audience."
Adrian Frank's, Manchester, Mo., senior, took home the title, placing first in two of the three events in which he competed. Trent Lickteig, Merriam senior, was the runner-up.
Contestants were allowed to compete in three of the four events.
The sixth annual contest began with the business suit competition and live music provided by the Beenburgers, the band of society president Jenny Balek, Topeka senior. First place in the suit competition was Franks, and Lick teig placed second.
After concluding their walk on the runway to ZZ Top's Sharp Dressed Man, the men pulled out guitars, card tricks and a Sousaphone for the next trial, the talent portion.
Dave Soderstrom, Wichita senior, and a partner won the talent portion with a swing dance routine, and Brian Hack, Lawrence senior placed second playing his Sousaphone.
the female crowd favor the, the boxer and the competitor.
Franks won that portion, while Matt Thompson, Beloit junior, and Will Dietz, Bartlesville, Okla., senior, tied for second.
"I'm stuck in a computer lab most of the time doing stuff which nobody understands," said Ronald Mihordin, Sacramento, Calif., senior and final competitor in the boxer shorts competition. "It's fun to let go once in a while and prove to the rest of campus that engineers don't have to be nerds."
The final event, the "geek factor," required contestants to wear their geekiest apparel and answer a question for the judges.
Bryan Meek, Liberal senior, earned first place and Lickteig received second.
"We had a lot of fun," Meek said. "Maybe next year I won't be too tired. Have a bit more fun with it."

mg flowers and gift certificates. For first place, Franks received a $50 gift certificate from Eastons and dinner for two at the Free State Brewery.
The society will next be host of a swing dance from 7 to 10 p.m. on March 12 in the Kansas Union ballroom. Lessons will be provided for the first hour. Members get in for $3, while non-members pay $5.

Faculty displays architectural projects
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
Twenty-eight Architecture and Urban Design faculty members will display about 100 pieces of their work at the Art & Design Gallery until March 5.
John Gaunt, dean of architecture and urban design, who is presenting some sketches he made of buildings in Berlin, said he had enjoyed his peers' work.
"We need to see what we're all doing from time to time," he said.
Gaunt said he liked the variety of the exhibits at the show, which began yesterday in the Art and Design Building.
"There's some current architectural work here, some drawings, some fanciful stuff." he said. "It's a good mix."
Anne Patterson, lecturer of Architecture and Urban Design, displayed some of the more unique pieces at the gallery.
"I have three kids, and that's a really big part of my life, and I use my art to do things for them," she said.
She also had paper cutout Spooner Hall models, which were made for its 100th birthday in 1994, and cutout Campanile models, which were made for its 50th birthday in 1996. The Spooner Hall model still can be purchased at the hall gift shop.
Patterson said she decided to show her work because it was not something that people would expect architects to do.
"You can actually make a big difference in a small way," she said. "I don't have time for buildings right now."
Dennis Sander, associate professor of architecture and urban design, said he had time for buildings and was working on two large projects.
He said one of his projects on display were pictures and a model of a massive aquarium that he designed for San Jose del Cabo, Mexico.
"This is three times as large as the world's largest now." he said.
Some of her pictures in the show were from a set she had painted for a school play and a cake she decorated for a birthday party.
Sander was forced to scale down his
Victoria Jimenez, Guadalajara, Mexico, senior, said that she learned a lot from the show, and that she particularly was interested in Sander's project.
The school offers faculty shows once every five years when the school is being reviewed for accreditation.
"I'm working on a project now and this is really helping me, giving me ideas," she said.
The school would have been accredited this semester, but the date was postponed until next semester. The school may offer another show in the fall.

Sander said the project was postponed for monetary reasons, but that he had equally important monetary reasons for seeing it go through.
