A huge thank you to Naaman & Nick with Blake Clotia for hosting our engineering students on a tour of your manufacturing facility! It was a fantastic opportunity to learn about key industry topics! Thanks for your time and dedication to fostering the next generation of engineers!

Fun Friday Question! What do you wish someone had told you as a freshmen?

Medical Monday! It was Dermatology Week for the Medical strand, where students explored the complex functions of the skin and its related structures. They studied various skin conditions, including their causes, symptoms, and treatment options. Important information!

NCAA Championship weekend, who you got?!?

Medical Monday! Last week the students learned how to examine ears through otoscopic exams. The students explored the anatomy of the ears and what constitutes a normal ear appearance. Additionally, we examined some abnormal ear canals and tympanic membranes.

Today’s partner spotlight is on Audrey Garcia PT, DPT! She divides her time between teaching at WSU's PT dept. & working in private practice. Audrey is an enthusiastic advocate of CAPS & takes great joy in seeing the future of healthcare light up when they understand a concept.

Some projects in the Engineering lab originate from students. Hayden Blackburn had a damaged pickleball paddle. He brought it to CAPS, where he created an entirely new handle. He now has a custom paddle!

Medical Monday! Last week the Medical strand explored the incredible journey of how humans begin! They dove into how babies grow inside their moms, the reproductive system, and the process of birth. They had ping-pong "babies" and learned to swaddle newborns.

Business project updates: 🔵Brody & Cooper, who launched a trashcan cleaning service, have reached their fundraising goal and are now operating as a for-profit business. 🔵Julia & Gracie are organizing a new event with help from Kylor. A car show on May 3rd. Exciting!

Chef Pete Geoghegan serves as the Dir. of Culinary for Cargill Food North America. Recently, he allowed Tristen Gibbs & Ben Feimer to shadow him. Chef Pete provided them with a tour of Cargill's headquarters, concluding the tour in the test kitchen where Ben grilled T-bones.

Savannah designed & constructed a drafting table using her 3D modeling skills on the program Inventor. She created the component patterns, sent them to the CNC Router to be produced & then assembled. The angle of the top can be changed and legs stowed as needed. Quite ingenious!

Today's spotlight is on Tristan, John, & Vivian for their hard work on a Tanganyika Wildlife Park YouTube series project! Tristan is shooting the content of John and Vivian interacting with the animals & exclusive experiences while getting info from some of the park’s Guides.

New engineering project! Asher Lentz is crafting a stunning media cabinet. He used Inventor & MasterCam for the design phase, & the CNC router was used to cut the red oak doors. With the doors now finished, he will begin assembling the cabinet. Can't wait to see the final result!

Listen to why some Business strand young professionals think you should come to CAPStone!
