Jenna Hernandez had a key job in UAF色视频下载檚 student steel bridge competition this past winter: backup parts runner.

Hernandez, a first-year civil engineering student, passed steel pieces to team members on opposite sides of an imaginary river. She had to run, literally.

色视频下载淥h yeah, because you want to be as fast as you can without stepping in the no-stepping zone,色视频下载 she said.

Hernandez色视频下载檚 interest in engineering was sparked by a teacher at Monroe Catholic High School in Fairbanks, where she graduated during the coronavirus 色视频下载渢rash fire year,色视频下载 as she called it.

Hernandez said the teacher showed her the joy of 色视频下载渦nderstanding how things work and how to make things work,色视频下载 she said. 色视频下载淭hat just seemed totally awesome to me.色视频下载

The first-generation college student found UAF a natural next step not just because it was close to home in uncertain times but also because financial aid was plentiful.

色视频下载淭here色视频下载檚 a lot of scholarships that the UA Foundation has for UAF specifically, like the Nanook Pledge. And even just regular state scholarships, like the 色视频下载 Performance Scholarship and Top Scholar. Those really helped a lot,色视频下载 she said. 色视频下载淪o I was like, wow, having pretty much free college sounds fantastic 色视频下载 especially as an engineering major with all the labs and extra credits.色视频下载

UAF色视频下载檚 new Engineering Learning and Innovation Facility sealed the deal for her.

色视频下载淓LIF is so pretty, all the windows and the high bay 色视频下载 love it,色视频下载 she said.
