Rogelio Alberto Casas Served in the U.S. Army with the 30th Engineering Battalion, Company B, which was tasked with map making. He was originally stationed at Fort Belvoir, then was sent to North Africa to make maps for the invasions of Sicily and Italy, then was stationed at Schofield Barracks, Oahu, Hawaii for the last year of the war.
He had grown up in Spain and had seen combat with the Republican Army against the fascists. He eventually had to escape the country by foot over the Pyranees Mountains after the collapse of the government and made his way to New York. By accident, he had been born in Puerto Rico while his mother was accompanying his father on a business trip and so he had U.S. Citizenship.
He was an artist and had taken a course in cartography before graduating from Columbia University in 1942 so he was assigned to this unit which was heavy with artists, as can be seen from many of his photos. As part of reproducing maps, the unit was able to easily make photo prints. This resulted in Rogelio returning from the war with many hundreds of photos showing personal and cultural scenes from North Africa, the U.S. and Hawaii.
After the terrors of the Spanish Civil War (in which nearly all of his childhood friends were killed) his lot kept getting better. He married Constance Berry, whom he met in New York City, and lived with her at Fort Belvoir until shipping to North Africa. Although he lived in field conditions there, he never had to see combat again. By the time he was stationed in Hawaii, his photos suggest a nearly resort-living environment at Schofield Barracks. He finally returned home to his wife, finished his Doctorate and became a Humanities Professor at Dartmouth for a few years and then the University of New Hampshire at Durham for the majority of his career.

Dr. Grant Willson, professor of chemical engineering and chemistry at The University of Texas at Austin, loads a wafer in his research group's new Step and Flash Imprint Lithography equipment. The process eliminates the need for expensive lens assemblies and high energy light sources required by next generation lithographies (NGL) as well as the need for high temperature and high pressure used by other imprint processes.

The Concord Gas Light Company Gasholder House, in Concord, New Hampshire, is the last remaining example of a gasholder house in the United States that retains its interior wrought-iron gasholder. The storage tank held purified manufactured coal gas. The cylindrical brick structure was designed and erected by Deily & Fowler of Laurel Iron Works, Philadelphia. During the second half of the nineteenth century, coal gas was an important fuel for municipal, industrial, and domestic illumination and, therefore, played a significant role in the growth of American cities and industry. The Concord Gas Light Company, suppliers of illuminating gas to City of Concord, installed the Gasholder House in 1887–1888, during one of several late-nineteenth-century improvements to its facility on South Main Street.

In its 22nd year, the Engineering Expo is the college’s premier community outreach event. On average, the college welcomes more than 1,500 K-12 students from Miami-Dade and Broward County schools (elementary, middle, and high school) to the FIU Engineering Center to engage with FIU student organizations, researchers and staff, and to discover the endless possibilities of pursuing a degree in engineering or computing.
