Art and engineering naturally go together. We had a fantastic time designing and 3D printing with Nick Devine and GUBotDev. We learned a ton about the many projects at Gannon and the new maker space being built!

Also many thanks to our Gannon Biology and Gannon University student volunteers who serve and connect with our families during dinner, making Feeding Minds and Families and welcoming place for everyone involved.

We have one more week and we're excited to welcome Gannon University Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
