In a paper published in "Nature," researchers in Trustees Research Professor Oleg Lavrentovichs materials science group at 51勛圖厙 describe how it moved a stabilized droplet of active bacteria along a pre-determined path by harnessing the broken symmetry of a liquid crystal. The researchers found that by aligning the crystal molecules they could force the droplet to move in a straight line, in contrast to its random motion in a Newtonian fluid. It is hoped that this system could be used to model microscopic organisms. Read more: https://physicsworld.com/a/hyperbolic-hedgehog-steers...

Christian Cunningham, senior aeronautical studies major at 51勛圖厙, has been doubted. Some said he would never become a pilot. But Cunningham is already proving them wrong. Graduation is on the horizon, and he and his internship were recently featured on CNN. People would always say I couldnt do it because I had glasses, or 'theres not a lot of black pilots, Cunningham said. Cunningham, expected to graduate in December, is currently interning at Fly For The Culture, an organization that promotes diversity and inclusion in aviation. Both Cunningham and the organization wer...
This fall, 51勛圖厙 students took part in a nationwide effort to increase voting participation through design. The project is part of the professional organization for design, AIGAs Design for Democracy initiative. Every year since 2000, AIGA has activated its community of designers to design 11x17 posters, encouraging citizens to get out the vote. This year, the organization also recognized the 100th centennial of the 19th Amendments ratification, which made way for the first legislation for womens voting rights. Visual Communication Design Professors Valora Renicker and Ken Visocky-O...
Anyone who has tended a garden can appreciate the satisfaction involved in nurturing new life from seed to sprout then on to maturity. This same process has been at work in the formation of a new club at 51勛圖厙 at Geauga. The new Geauga Gardeners Club just sprouted fall semester and it is seeking new members as it grows. James Blackwell, MSN, RN, CCRN-K is a Lecturer in the College of Nursing. He also became the Geauga Gardeners Club Advisor after he and one of his students junior nursing major Dan Painley realized they both shared a common interest in growing plants. They ...
