On April 23, 2025 SAU hosted the SOAR Conference in the Reynolds Building. Honors College students in the Full Honors 3D Printing class presented posters of the projects that they have been working on throughout the semester. The objective of the students' projects was to replace a commonly used object that is typically made of metal or wood materials with a 3D printed version using more eco-friendly materials.
Molly Fanning and Joseph Bailey presented A Reusable Card Holder with Personalization and Restoration in Mind
Logan Barnett and Savannah Sivils presented A lightweight Restorable 3D Printed Bottle Opener
Jameson Foster, Christin Flory, and Jayla Carter presented a Sustainable 3D Wall Anchor for Lightweight Fixtures
Andrew O'Grady and Julissa Olivarez presented a Restorative Redesign of the Grinder Protection Cover
The students showcased not only their finished projects, but also how they were able to decrease the material waste created by the 3D printers. Through this course, along with the guidance of their professor Dr. Zghair, our students were able to highlight the increased sustainability practices that 3D printing could offer in the near future. SAU Honors College is proud of the hard work students have put in!
