Eratosthenes, Noon Project, and
Faubion Middle School

In 1997, Faubion Middle School took part in the Noon Shadow Observation Project for the first time. For the last several years Kathy Smith and her classes at Central Academy in Champaign, Illinois have organized the project.

This year, Noon Project '98 was co-sponsored by Ihor Charischak at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Faubion Middle School participated actively in this project by collecting the data through the Submission Form and posting the data on the Results Table.

Schools participated by measuring the angle of the Sun at Local Noontime during the week of March 16-21, 1998. The schools submitted there results through the Noon Project Submission's Form. If you are interested in participating in Noon '99, contact Kenneth Cole at  kcole@waymark.net.
