| Godiva's Crown (sometimes known simply as Godiva or Lady Godiva) is a female engineering student who has been chosen to represent the spirit of [[Lady Godiva]] at Skule™. She is selected during a [[Godiva Week]] competition in which she must perform a creative act in front of a panel of male judges and the reigning Godiva's Crown. Godiva's Crown holds the ceremonial wooden horse as well as the signature Crown for the year. She is present at many Skule™ events to improve Skule™ spirit.

| The Crown worn by Godiva's Crown is a unique hardhat, from which a distinctive crown shape is carved, with the sides of the crown emblazoned with the suit representing the year (i.e. the ''Queen of Hearts'' or the ''Queen of Clubs''). The 'suit' for each Godiva's Crown rotates each year in a four-year cycle. | | The University of Toronto Engineering Kompetitons (UTEK) will be in its 8th year in 2010, and acts as a qualifier for the Ontario Engineering Competition. UTEK is hosted by the Engineering Society, although the Alumni Office offers large support for it, since UTEK is an event that not only showcases UofT’s engineering talent, it also engages past alumni to connect with students via judging |

| ==Competition== | |
| The Godiva's Crown Competition has traditionally been held on Thursday evening of [[Godiva Week]]. The competition consists of two main parts. First, in a humourous gesture, each Godiva's Crown contestant is asked to use power tools to nail, hammer, drill, and screw together a small wooden object in front of the judges.
| |
| | |
| The main part of the competition involves a creative act which may include a skit, song, or dance. There are no requirements to the act, and many acts have involved the use of props, supporting cast, and multimedia presentations.
