Junior high girls explore engineering, math, science

Ben Herr, retired ONU electrical engineering professor, explains a project during a soldering seminar at Camp GEMS (Girls in Engineering, Math and Science) last week. Nearly 60 junior high girls participated. The camp, in its 24th year, involved hands-on learning demonstrations and experiments. It enables girls to explore an array of worlds from technology, math, chemistry and computers to different areas of engineering. Instructors include ONU faculty members. Laurie Laird is the camp director.
