Her idea has resonated with all who have heard of the idea. Sean has joined Hristina on this mission, and together, they are both working toward a successful launch of Union College's first MakerSpace, dedicated to enhancing the virtues of collaboration and innovative thought.</span>
==== Luke McCaffrey - Update (2/16) ==== <span style="color:#000000;">Currently, the closest thing we have to a makerspace is a room the Union Collaborative Design Studio. This room is the home of the various Makerbot 3D Printers that we have as well as the high-resolution Stratasys Objet 3D Printer.

My goal is to have a newly designated room with full whiteboard walls and up-to-date learning technologies along with trained access to equipment that the school already has.</span>
