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.
Students in Trine University’s Capstone in Sport Management class won their second National Collegiate Sports Sales Championship (NCSSC) showcase event of the fall, then went on to place in the national Super Showcase.
Trine University chemical engineering graduate Parker Reichhart has earned national recognition, receiving two awards in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Annual Student Design Competition. The awards were presented during the 2025 Annual Student Conference, held Nov. 1–4 in Boston, Massachusetts.
