Freshmen Build Mobility Cart for Boots

Categories: General News Tags: Departmental News

Students from the Lee College of Engineering’s Freshman Learning Community designed and built a mobility cart for 8-month-old puppy Boots, a Pembroke Welsh Corgi whose front legs were not properly developed at birth. The freshmen donated their own time to the project, helping out owner Laura Russell who requested their assistance last fall.

The students involved were: John Driver, Jason Bird, Chris Bogardus, Eden Indicott, Kayla Rutter, Austin Duncan, Moira Tucker and Logan Davis.
