Menger Sponge Completed at Level 3
A-B Tech's Math Department has completed its campus-wide project of creating a level 3 Menger Sponge, which is an object with infinite surface area, but no volume. It is a three-dimensional fractal, which can be made by taking a cube and cutting out a square section through the center in each of three directions, then each of the resulting small cubes is cut out the same way, and so on. The A-B Tech community worked backward by folding business cards to create the cubes. The Menger Sponge is on display in the lower level of Locke Library.

“Various people constructed a level 2 cube. We then placed the 20 level 2 cubes together to form level 3,” said Math Instructor James Wilson.
