As we work through a challenging time – each of us focusing on doing all the right things in the face of uncertainty – your extended Clarkson family is thinking of you.
Each evening, we hope to share a story of good things, Good Knights, as a way to remind each of us that, despite the realities of our challenging days, good things are still happening. We will look for short stories highlighting members of the Clarkson community demonstrating the values we all share – integrity, teamwork, humility and a commitment to making the world a better place.
Sam Knight ’01 led a team to produce 3D printed face shields that have been distributed to local medical facilities and accepted by the Maine State CDC into their PPE distribution program. Sam is the Director of Product Management at Blue Marble Geographics (www.bluemarblegeo.com) in Hallowell, Maine. He is also a mentor of a robotics team creating these shields. As of May 13, they have produced over 2000 face shields.
