Last Wednesday, ENVD First-Year Experience students spent the afternoon exploring the Creative Labs Center with Caleb Wright, manager of ENVD academic support centers, and the CLC monitors. Students used a handful of tools from the woodworking lab and made cellphone holders from spare pieces of hickory. The simple phone holders taught the processes of layout, crosscutting, drilling, sanding and finishing in about an hour.

FYE activities are a great way to learn about ENVD, CU and Â鶹ӰԺ while socializing with your peers. The Creative Labs Center offer hands-on training on many of the tools they offer encouraging all ENVD students to maximize their creative abilities.
