What are you up to this summer? Our very own CK Shea is completing her IQP during E-term in Bar Harbor, Maine! Shea’s team is implementing citizen science programming into the Acadia National Park using iNaturalist! It’s really cool because it helps scientists track massive amounts of data and statistics on plants and animals (especially useful for endangered and invasive species). Good luck Shea!!

Today's shoutout is CK Allanah!!! She is a Junior Mechanical Engineer from Huntington Beach, CA (surfs up!)!! On campus, she works as the president of the yearbook club as well as training to become a CA for the next incoming class! Her reason to love WPI? "It gives me so many opportunities that I would of never thought I'd have, from going to Denmark to being a president, WPI knew what I was capable of before I even did!"

MEET THE MOST AMAZING PR CHAIR IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!!! This is max, he's the one who creates all the amazing captions/puns. He's been apart of CK since freshman year and changing the lives of many ever since. Max is currently a Sophomore Robotics and Biomedical engineering double major from New York! He's involved with too much on campus to even mention but what he does say about why he loves WPI is amazing "I love WPI for the community; every interaction you could have with someone is not only positive, but just re-confirms how excited and passionate each student is about their education and achieving their goals with others." Stay classy Max!
