On March 18, WSU School of Medicine alumna Maurgan Lee, MS ’22, led a group of Southfield Christian High School juniors and seniors through classrooms, labs and presentations at the Eugene Applebaum College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences as well as the School of Medicine. The goal of Lee’s annual event is to expose high school students to a wide range of STEM topics to prepare them for college success. At the Applebaum Building, students learned about possible career paths, enjoyed hands-on lab activities, toured the Pharmuseum with Associate Dean for Pharmacy Susan Davis, and spent some warm-and-fuzzy time with trained therapy dogs in the STELLA Lab, where WSU Applebaum students drop in to de-stress and Assistant Clinical Professor of Occupational Therapy Christine Kivlen conducts research on animal-assistant intervention. After lunch at the School of Medicine, Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences Paul Stemmer talked to students about research opportunities similar to those Lee herself experienced in his lab as a Wayne State student. According to Lee, the students loved every aspect of the event and left excited about Wayne State.

This wall hanging celebrates all 4 parts of STEM; Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. The word STEM is spelled out using elements that represent each subject, and are then surrounded by a selection of micro-models relating to the subject.
Science is made of two attracting magnets, and has a microscope, test tubes, a cell, a brontosaurus skeleton, some plants (botany), and a rocket. Technology is made of a circuitboard, and there are some cell phones, a play button, a computer, and a radar dish. Engineering is made from a crane, and contains a bridge, a skyscraper, and a selection of tools. Finally, Math is a quartic function, and there is a pencil, a drawing compass, a calculator, and a ruler.
There are also three locations on the back for easy and stable attachment to a wall, and the whole thing comprises of just under 800 pieces.
