come on! some input please!
 
I am not sure about your specific school, but I would say probably yes. Contact someone at the mechanical eng. dept. at the Uni. of N. Florida to make sure.
 
First, the quote under your signature is offensive. Please change it. Second, people are going to brush you off if you're not patient!
