Building an Apiary at PAWS Farm

By PAWS Farm Educational Center

Bringing Pollinator Education to PAWS Farm Educational Center!

bees, PAWS, farm, apiary Bringing Pollinator Education to PAWS Farm Educational Center! PAWS Farm Educational Center Bring Bees & Learning to Life at PAWS Farm Educational Center! Help us raise the next $5,000 toward our $10,000 goal to build a bee apiary at PAWS Farm. We raised $2,245 in the Spring to start our first hive! Pollinators are essential for our environment, the food we eat, and our health. Their numbers are declining—but you can help change that! Establishing an apiary at PAWS Farm, an outreach center run by the Shreiber School of Veterinary Medicine at Rowan University, will not only support pollinator populations in the region but also provide educational opportunities for students and visitors of all ages. Managed honeybees also require specialized veterinary care. The bees at PAWS will also help train our veterinary students to provide that care. Bee the change—help support pollinators and the next generation of compassionate veterinarians! -Dr. Katie Krebs "Bees may be small, but their impact is enormous. By supporting an apiary at PAWS Farm, you’re helping people of all ages see firsthand how pollinators keep our environment—and ultimately our food and health—thriving. It’s a simple, powerful way to connect the care of animals, people, and the planet all in one place.” – Dr. Katie Krebs, Associate Clinical Professor, Primary Care at the Shreiber School of Veterinary Medicine of Rowan University

Rowan Rocketry

By Rowan Rocketry

Help Rowan Rocketry launch at the 2027 International Rocket Engineering Competition.

rocketry Help Rowan Rocketry launch at the 2027 International Rocket Engineering Competition. Rowan Rocketry The Rowan Rocketry team is engaged in the process of designing, building, and launching a rocket capable of reaching 10,000 ft at the 2027 International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC). This work is part of a Junior/Senior Engineering Clinic, serving as a translation of knowledge gained during the undergraduate curriculum into a hands-on engineering project. The funds from this campaign will go towards two major components: the construction of this year's launch vehicle and the construction of a long-term test-bed vehicle. Rowan Rocketry's launch vehicle is the most technically complex yet, with a full fiberglass construction, student-researched-and-developed (SRAD) flight computers, and airbrakes to precisely target a chosen altitude. These cutting-edge features contribute to the majority of the project costs. Additionally, the team intends to develop a secondary vehicle to conduct test launches in order to verify SRAD components before the competition. Be the launch pad for tomorrow’s engineers. Your support today powers the innovators of tomorrow.
