The Theta Tau Fraternity Rube Goldberg Machine Contest is held each April and is open to any team of college students that has won a local contest . Judges representing the faculty of Purdue , the local media, and our sponsors are responsible for selecting the winner based on creativity and completion of the task. The audience also selects its favorite machine for the People's Choice award. The concept of a Rube Goldberg machine is an excellent educational tool. We offer a special invitation to you to bring your classes to see the contest.
Kids love to watch the machines run.
