Summer Transportion Institute: Helicopters and Goodbyes

This past Wednesday, July 16, students from the Summer Transportation Institute flew toy helicopters indoors as part of their daily activities. I took photos and interviewed students as they controlled their choppers. One of the students said,“Flying helicopters is fun but sometimes they crash into the walls and into us.” I thought it was amazing to see them engaging with technology at such a young age, especially since some of the students mentioned their desire to explore engineering as a career. Friday, July 25, will be the program’s last day on campus this summer. Jennie and I enjoyed covering them this year, and we hope to see them again.
