The snow peas and carrots and zucchini,
The crab apple tree
And each time the morning glories
Opened up against the chipped barn
Night music
Get PDFThe streetlights buzz mindlessly
But in the semi shadow, I look up--
The sky is deep
And the stars are humming.
I stop at the darkest point between two street lanterns,
And listen
Let’s Forget Goodbye

Kids under a summer night.
Hold on to me and let’s just breathe
In the here and now
Messiah University: Journeying Toward Reconciliation Together
Get PDFAt the beginning of each academic year, Messiah University holds Community Day, a time for the University\u27s Community of Educators (CoE) to gather, reflect, and prepare for the upcoming year. As part of Community Day, President Phipps presents her State of University Address, introducing the theme for that academic year
Panama Bridge Project
Get PDFThe Panama Bridge project has partnered with Rio Missions Panama to design a bridge for the village of La Gigi, Panama. The mountain community of La Gigi experiences heavy rainfall during the rainy seasons. A stream runs along the community, restricting their access to schools, employment options, and other communities. While passable during dry seasons, the stream floods and becomes impassable after heavy rains. The residents are effectively cut off from their livelihoods, church, health services, and other communities during this time.
To accommodate this need, the Panama Bridge Team has spent the last two academic years designing a 90 foot aluminum truss bridge. The design includes a unique construction strategy to deal with challenging site constraints.https://mosaic.messiah.edu/engr2021/1011/thumbnail.jp

FCS: Whipping up a Dish of Technology
Get PDFThe problem that has been chosen is technology in the family and consumer sciences (FCS) classroom. Being such a hands-on class, there is a lack of technology. This is a problem in today’s technology-driven society. Technology is all around us every day and can be a useful tool if used consciously and correctly. Technology is being integrated into other subjects, but it seems as if FCS classes are falling behind. With hands-on lessons such as cooking and sewing, there is a need for more technology to be used. Technology skills are useful for all students and finding meaningful ways to incorporate it into FCS classes will grow the students’ knowledge. An FCS teacher’s job is to teach students to be productive members of society and to make meaningful decisions to improve their quality of life. As technology keeps growing, these are life skills that are important for students to have. This project is a creation of 6 lesson plans for a cooking unit that incorporates technology into the classroom setting
A Low-Cost Egg Incubator to Provide Zambian Churches with Income and Food Security
Get PDFPartnering with Brethren in Christ (BIC) Church in Zambia, the Egg Incubator Team is seeking to help provide a source of income for the growing churches in Choma, Zambia. They will accomplish this by designing and building a high-quality, low-cost egg incubator fabricated from local parts and cheap internationally available parts for The Nahumba Mission, in Choma, Zambia. The team’s design will provide the means for the Mission to hatch and sell chickens to provide both food security and a sustainable supplemental income. With the specifications to maintain temperature, humidity and constant ventilation, the team selected heating and humidity concepts for their incubator series. The team completed both mechanical and electrical designs for the setter and hatcher. In preparation for testing the incubator design with fertilized eggs, the team has also produced an incubation and hatching plan and achieved IACUC approval. Currently, the team is in the prototyping phase, while simultaneously monitoring the temperature and humidity in an existing incubator setter design. Once the team finishes their hatcher prototype and verifies that the temperature and humidity specifications are met, they will be ready to test designs using fertilized chicken eggs.https://mosaic.messiah.edu/engr2021/1020/thumbnail.jp
