Murray State IET Hosts E-Day

Over 400 4th and 5th graders from around western Kentucky descended upon Murray State to experience physics. Faculty and students of the Jesse D. Jones College of Science, Engineering and Technology ran local middle school students through a variety of exercises, experiments, and technologies. 

The variety of stations allowed students hands-on access to simple robots, lighting & controller systems, human-sized Jenga blocks, and an egg-catapult. Each of these stations demonstrated simple and accessible technologies while also presenting the physics at work.
