Final Project Proposal:
In lieu of the recent budget cuts, I would like to comment on the rising cost of education. To do this, I would like to install a speaker in a textbook that will emit an S.O.S. signal, signifying the distress that public education is currently in. This will require wiring up a speaker to one of the digital out pins on the Arduino. Musical notes can be specified with code. I will hollow out a portion of the inside of the textbook to house the electronic components and somehow install a switch on the outside of the book to trigger the sound.
In lieu of the recent budget cuts and increase in tuition costs, I've decided to comment on the current peril of public higher education. I've installed a speaker in a textbook and programmed my Arduino to perform an S.O.S. signal a number of times, which turns into the sound of a cardiac monitor, followed by a simple rendition of the Funeral March.

The Circuit:
The Code:
#include "pitches.h"
// notes
}
Include this on a second tabwithin the Arduino sketch:
#define NOTE_0 0 #define NOTE_B0 31
#define NOTE_C1 33
#define NOTE_CS1 35
