    Kennesaw State architecture, engineering students reimagine Asheville's devastated River Arts District

    April 14, 2025

    Seeking refuge in Savannah, Georgia, Caelyn Summers sat anxiously in her childhood home last September while Hurricane Helene rumbled across the state before turning north toward the Blue Ridge Mountains. One of the deadliest storms in two decades, the Category 4 hurricane killed more than 200 people and left Summers without power for nearly four days. Among the images that stood out the most were those of Asheville, North Carolina, where she spent many family vacations over the years. Perhaps unsurprisingly, she leapt at the opportunity to be one of about two dozen KSU students to make the four-hour drive to Asheville in January to survey Helene damage and meet with community members to discuss recovery efforts.

    Kennesaw State student exploring the use of robotics in agriculture

    March 11, 2025

    As the first person in her family to attend college in the United States, Andrea Martinez Angulo has long been imbued with a tireless work ethic. It was instilled in her by her parents, who brought her to the U.S. from Jalisco, Mexico at 4 years old as her father pursued his career ambitions, and it continued as she was introduced to STEM as a student at Kennesaw Mountain High School. Today, she is well on her way to breaking new ground in robotics as a student in Kennesaw State University’s Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology.
