Tech and Society had it's Egg-O-Naut Project Launches last Tuesday and Thursday. There were some great designs and some exciting launches. Not all eggs made it back safely but some definitely did.

Applied Technology and Statistics Welcome Back Picnic! We love welcoming back our Polar Bears to campus and this years picnic was a great time. Started off at 6pm in the sun and by 645pm it was storming but that didn't stop us from continuing the fun in the Fluid and Mechanical lab. We had lots of good food, games, prizes and laughs.

One of the coolest things about summer is getting to go and see all of the amazing things our students are doing during their co-op and internship work experiences. These are just some of the students professor Agozzino has had the chance to go visit in the Cleveland and Columbus areas over the last couple of weeks. Looking forward to going to the Cincinnati area the last week of July!

On June 17, the Applied Technology Department hosted a session as part of Ohio Northern University's STEM Camp. We were pleased to welcome 20 students from a variety of high schools, who enthusiastically participated in the hands-on learning experience. During the session, students were introduced to the fundamentals of metal casting before moving to the laboratory, where they created their own sand-cast aluminum ONU plaques.

On Thursday, May 7th, Applied Technology held its 2nd Annual Drone Day. This event is organized by Professor Douglass Degen, and months of work have gone into it.
The day started off at 7am with breakfast and a career fair where students could interact with some of the great companies attending the day's activities. Companies attending included Haynes Construction, Independence Excavating, Kleinfelder, Kokosing Construction Company, Mossier Construction Company, Percision Laser & Instrument Inc., Rudolph Libbe Inc., and Woolpert.
From there, we moved to the Pharmacy lecture hall with a presentation of the Flags and opening remarks from the Dean of Arts and Science, Stacey Lowery Bretz.
The students received amazing presentations from Brian Stevens (Woolpart), Donovan Powers (OGRIP), Drew Ritzler (United States Department of Agriculture and President of Freedom Civil Services), Dominic Stepanovsky (OH/IN UAS Center), Jared Baxter (Survey Department Manger), Dan Kempa ( Kleinfelder), Doug Thomas (Independence Demolition), Dr. Janet Deardorff Schroeder (Champaign County), Travis Althouse (Erie Insurance Group), and Dr. James Uphaus (Rhodes State College).
We even received a very special visit from George Washington (Professor Silva) to discuss surveying.
Next was the fantastic lunch provided by Smokin' BBQ.
Then we all got the pleasure of going outside to watch these companies fly / boat their drones. The weather cooperated this year, so the students saw some amazing things and received some first-hand drone experience.
On top of all this excitement, there were door prizes throughout the day, and so many students had the great honor of winning them. Things such as Super Bowl Footballs from Wilson Football Factory, a custom-made ONU Fire Pit ring from International Tank Service, and automotive books from our very own Jim Halderman, just to name a few. There were so many other prizes provided by the companies previously mentioned in this post as well.
This truly is a special event for the students, and we do owe another thanks to Professor Degen for his hard work in putting this all together. We also want to thank the Tech Club, the Applied Technology Department, and all the participants who took time out of their day to make this day so special for the students.

Last week during University Honors Day, the Department of Applied Technology proudly hosted the initiation ceremony for Epsilon Pi Tau, recognizing students for their academic excellence, leadership, and commitment to the field of technology.

Congratulations to our newest inductees. We are proud of your achievements and excited to see your continued success.

Last night, the ONU Tech Club hosted its first-ever Touch-a-Truck event and it was a tremendous success!

With beautiful weather and an incredible community turnout of nearly 400 attendees, families and children had the opportunity to explore over 35 vehicles, including fire apparatus, construction equipment, law enforcement vehicles, and more.

This event would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of our Tech Club members and volunteers, who put in countless hours to make the evening run smoothly.

Thank you to everyone who attended, participated, and supported this event. We look forward to making Touch-a-Truck a lasting tradition at Ohio Northern University.
