NC State engineering senior first to receive Newman Fellowship

In the Institute for Emerging Issues commons area of the James B. Hunt Jr. Library, children can often be found running back and forth in front of a wall of interactive digital screens. Those screens are a hit with younger visitors to the NC State campus because sensors installed on each pull up a panel of information and make a clicking noise when someone is standing nearby. To a child, running the length of the wall is like sliding a finger along a giant keyboard.
