Each year, the School of Science and Engineering hosts "Merit Badge University" in the Boggs Center during the winter semester break. More than 100 Boy Scouts attend this day-long event where they can earn merit badges in Electricity, Electronics, and Engineering as well as Law, Medicine, and Communications. Most of these courses are taught by Tulane faculty or alumni. The event also welcomes the boys (and their parents) to Tulane, and they're encouraged to consider Tulane as they begin to formulate their long range plans.
