Since it appears that the US Army Coprs of Engineers is now admitting culpability in the levee failures in New Orleans, I wonder if this hurts or helps the image of the profession? :dunno: Any thoughts?
I'm thinking it could help. Now the public and the entire nation and perhaps the world (if this stuff is being aired throughout the nation still) can see how improper engineering can adversely affect a huge number of people, businesses and local economies and futures.
Perhaps people will see our importance. Maybe the reaction will be to pay whatever it takes to have it properly engineered.
Any other thoughts?
