⭐️ Student Assistant Spotlight: Today, we highlight our Access Services Student Assistant, Bukata Mubanga, junior mechanical engineer major. Bukata recently created a compact, keychain-style EpiPen Case in the Bulldog Makerspace located on the 2nd floor of the LRC. The EpiCase is designed to make EpiPens easier to carry and quicker to access, helping reduce the risk of leaving them behind and improving response time during allergic emergencies. Bukata, the Drake LRC staff are proud of your accomplishments and wish you continuous success. To read more about Bukata’s design please visit https://www.aamu.edu/about/inside-aamu/news/mubanga-developed-epipen-case-in-bulldog-makerspace-lab.html
