Nicole George won an award for her project Tuesday at Kinesiology Research Day.
Dozens of projects by grad and undergrad students were displayed at Kinesiology Research Day, Tuesday in the Human Kinetics Building.
Volunteering with the Active Aging and Health Management Program, which serves seniors living with chronic diseases, has given kinesiology students Charles Kahelin and Rob Ward a better appreciation of the wide spectrum of mobility issues people must cope with.
The two are now helping with a research project on the location of emergency evacuation chairs in campus buildings.
Ward, just finished his third year studies in movement science, says that for a university geared to accessibility, the project is important.
