On May 1, Southern State’s Computer Science Department, led by Associate Professor Dr. Joshua Montgomery, organized a STEM MiniDome Celebration Day at the Center of Science and Industry (COSI) in Columbus for students.
Students from Reynoldsburg and Zane Trace participated in the day’s activities.
Kicking off the event was Dr. Montgomery followed by Eric Jacobs with the TSJ Foundation. Other special guests included Jason Messick with COSI and Dr. Ayanna Howard with The Ohio State University.
