If you find yourself on the second floor of the Wright Education Building, you might come across Room 2260—otherwise known as the Make, Innovate, Learn Lab or MILL, a multi-use makerspace where educators and students can explore the world of making.
The MILL features a variety of tools—a 3-D scanner and printers, laser cutter, sewing machines, vinyl cutter, CNC router and soldering irons, just to name a few—all with the goal of bringing creativity and making into the classroom.
Karyn Taylor is an elementary education major with a concentration in mathematics. When she began learning about all the different technologies and machines that the MILL has to offer, she instantly fell in love with the space and began spending the majority of her free time in there, learning and gaining experience on the different machines.
