After you know how to make good photographs, it is time to use your skills to say something. This is the third course in the Natural Light series. Students do not need to have taken any of the other courses, but should be comfortable with a camera. In this three week course we are primarily concerned with creating a series of images that follow through on an idea. Students will decide on a series and begin working on it. Students will also work on a short personal statement about their work. All students must have a camera and be willing to present their work digitally in class.

The MOST will once again host the Build’em and Bust’em Bridge Building Competition. The annual event is coordinated by the MOST along with the L.C. Smith College of Engineering and Computer Science of Syracuse University and is sponsored by Lockheed Martin’s Syracuse-based business. Build’em and Bust’em gives kids an opportunity to learn about engineering, teamwork and design. These types of competitions bolster a student’s confidence in science and mathematics principles. Teams of two or three students in grades 4-12 will be participating in one of three levels. Category 1 teams (grades 4-6) and Category 2 teams (grades 7-8) will design and build a bridge. Category 3 teams (grades 9-12) will design and build a bridge and/or crane. On the day of the event, faculty, staff and students from the L.C. College of Engineering and Computer Science along with engineering professionals will weigh and stress the structures to their breaking points, attempting to “bust’em” and winners will be chosen in each category.
