ANGOLA, Ind. – Area children correctly calculated an evening of fun when they attended the Math Kids' Night at Trine University.
For the third year, the Trine Math Club hosted the free event designed to pique interest in mathematics, a STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) field.
Trine Math Club members and Trine student volunteers led 115 students in making slime and playing games on Friday, Nov. 15. Prizes provided by area sponsors were given and children were treated to pizza.
Donations were also accepted for Big Brothers Big Sisters and the math club collected approximately $135.
Trine University student Alexander Jackson has been named as the recipient of a $5,000 Founders Fund scholarship from Phi Eta Sigma, a national honor society for first-year college students.
Students in Trine University’s dual enrollment programs will have the opportunity to earn one of four professional certifications beginning this fall.
