Recently, 21 STEM students from the Utica Campus visited the United States Capital in Washington, D.C. The purpose of the visit was to attend the USA Science & Engineering Festival.
The fourth USA Science & Engineering Festival, the largest and only NATIONAL science festival, featured nationwide contests and school programs, including the popular 'Nifty Fifty' science speaker program and X-STEM Symposium.
As academic dean, I was privileged to make the trip with our students. The Festival culminated with a Grand Finale Expo on April 16-17. More than 350K+ attendees celebrated science at the Expo and engaged in activities with some of the biggest names in STEM.

What is that noise I hear? On my seemingly peaceful walk from visiting the toddlers in the Freddie J. Jackson Child Care Center on campus I am greeted with loud and jarring noise coming from a sizable mixing bowl…or so I hope and think. With a bit of inquisitiveness, I found myself not getting ready to taste a cake or sample some cookies but rather watching the collision repair technology students fixing and painting several damaged cars. How lucky are they I had my camera with me!
