The ProtoPath is a pedestrian- and bike-only path connecting our campus directly to the bike lane on Leigh Street, and it just got some TLC thanks to an amazing group of volunteers!

An awesome team from CarMax volunteered their time to make our campus shine! ✨ These volunteers watered trees in The Green, picked up trash along Broad Street and cleaned in LightPlace. We're turning the volume up to the max as we say, THANK YOU!

Have you been to see BODY WORLDS: The Anatomy of Happiness? This exhibition is not a happiness guide, but rather it explains what happiness has to do with our body and how positive or negative emotions can affect health. Experience the North American museum debut! BODY WORLDS: The Anatomy of Happiness is on display until September 2.

A great reflection from Sunrise Science! A huge thank you to our speaker and all the attendees for making this event a thoughtful and inspiring one!
Today I attended the Sunrise Science and Up & Atom Women's Leadership Initiative event at the Science Museum of Virginia for STEM leaders and educators. It was a motivational experience, especially with Mariana Fonseca Medina sharing her inspiring journey from a career in engineering to finance and her role as a Senior Executive Vice President at Mastercard. I related to Mariana's career transition and challenges, reflecting on my own journey from health sciences and STEM to financial education. The event not only bridged diverse aspects of my professional background but also emphasized the pivotal role of women in STEM and leadership, making it a significant and enriching start to Women's History Month. Meeting numerous women in leadership and STEM careers was equally remarkable, providing a powerful network of role models. I decided to bring my daughter along, seizing the opportunity for her to learn from these accomplished women. Navigating the event with my daughter during Women's History Month felt like a meaningful way to honor the occasion. Witnessing her enthusiasm for science left me with a sense of pride and excitement for her future in a STEM field.
