But those who hope in the Lord

    will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;     

they will run and not grow weary,     

they will walk and not be faint.

Isaiah 40:31

Please come and help celebrate Nu Ha-Dao’s 17 years of service to the College as she prepares to retire. Nu has worked in the Campus Events Departments on the third shift in Old Main, library and ECC over the 17-year span. She has always greeted students, employees and guests of the college with a smile and will be missed. The reception will be on Tuesday, June 26, 8 – 9:30 p.m. in the Private Dining Room (PDR) in Eisenhower. We hope to see you there!

A Collaboratory team returned on June 9 from Kenya. Two project teams, Rapid Orthotics for CURE Kenya (ROCK) and the Cunningham Clubfoot Brace team, worked with CURE International. ROCK updated 3D printing software, printed a prosthetic, and trained several local orthopedic technicians who will “print” custom prosthetics. The Cunningham Clubfoot Brace team updated the partner on a lower cost material for the brace and potential new manufacturing process. Tim Howell (Engr) led the team, which included engineering students Erik Dyrli, Thomas Pond, Katherine Prelog, Jared Rider, Emily Tinguely, Emma Vogan and Daniel Yeisley.
