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.
