We have awesome faculty who not only work wonders with out students, but are also out in the community “teaching” and sharing knowledge. Check out this article from the Post-Tribune, “Learning with LEGOs,” featuring MVCC faculty member Steve Mastej, who works to foster scientific thinking in children using LEGOs through the eGenius Challenge Academy. Steve is a great faculty member who often helps us raise money for the Library’s student scholarship fund.
If you are interested in the connection between LEGOs & science/engineering, check out this video from Larry Langellier (a member in the same department as Steve).
