Students in UC's top-rated industrial design program are developing concepts for the GM Hummer, a consumer version of the military's Humvee all-terrain vehicle.

As an incentive and close-up look at what General Motors Corporation is planning, the company sent a team of designers to campus Saturday, April 8 with a full-scale Hummer prototype.

The sneak preview is expected to help the students in a unique design studio going on this quarter.
