Taylor University
After an introductory meeting on December 5, 2013 Dr. Joel Gegner is incorporating HWI’s trike into a Junior project for a handful of students for the Spring 2014 semester.
On December 5, 2013 Kevin, our engineer traveled to Taylor University for a University Trike Consortium introductory meeting. Alice was present via Skype due to health issues. Thanks to Dr. C. Brainer our host, he set up three meetings for HWI. First there was lunch with 4 engineering professors and 3 Wandering Wheels team members. The engineers stayed about 45 min. longer than planned and had many great brainstorming ideas. Next was the Enactus business club faculty member and then on to meet with the short term mission trip coordinator. What an amazing day. Please pray for God’s direction as the faculty continue to contemplate and pray about possibilities with HWI.
On February 18, 2014 Alice and Kevin met by Skype with Professor Joel Gegner and six junior engineering students to share the University Trike Consortium vision. A follow up meeting by Skype will occur on February 20, 2014 to hear some of the student’s proposals for a spring trike project. Check back to hear more about what the students decide.
