“Growing the flowers and then sculpting them bridges even further into an art direction. I always wanted this to be seen as art and not craft. I think they are sculptures. I sculpt and paint as any artist would.”

51��������'s student robotics team — NUKE Robotics — returns from the 2022 VEX Robotics World Championship ranked fourth overall in head-to-head competition within the technology division in the team's first full year of competition.

"I’m able to use my platform to impact others...Knowing that my art is making a difference in the world—big or small—is all I can ask for as an artist."

"51�������� was always my goal, and I got to be here with my dad having him as a trusted adviser on campus. And now my sons are here. I love it, and I love what I do. And, I guess I need to find a new goal now because I’m living it.”

"I have had the opportunity to learn from people at 51�������� and in my community, which has provided me with an education that goes beyond just academics."

“Art can be a catalyst for community, for dialogue and for progress. "It can help us form a deeper understanding of each other, of our neighbors and where we find ourselves in this crazy world.”

“The first time I toured campus, it felt like home—I could see myself being here. I didn’t get quite the same feeling anywhere else."
