Eric Harshbarger, mathematics '92 and '94, recently made headlines for his construction of a Samford Hall replica built completely out of LEGOs. Harshbarger, who has been working with LEGOs professionally for more than a decade, said the entire process included nearly a month of preparation and about 20 hours to build. Harshbarger spent many days taking photographs of the Auburn landmark from different angles and built the structure in a computer program based on his pictures in order to produce a blueprint before constructing the building. The completed model included approximately 5,000 pieces. (from AU COSAM e-journey)
