A week-long summer camp brought North Carolina high school students together to learn how they can improve phosphorus sustainability...
Camp Gives High Schoolers a STEP-Up in Sustainable Research
Posted on August 14, 2024
A little competition fires up high school students, especially when it lets them build something that helps the environment.
With help from 3D printers and graduate students at UNC Greensboro and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, one such competition capped off a week of problem-based learning, centered around an element found in everything from DNA to matches to fertilizer.
The 17 students took part in ExPlorers, a summer camp run by the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN). ExPlorers takes scientific and engineering concepts that demand long hours of lab work and study for PhD students and faculty and makes them relatable to high school students, helping them see how science connects everything they interact with day-to-day.
“Every time I come to the camp, I get to learn a little more about different aspects of STEM,” says Mackenzie “Mac” Alexander, a Grimsley High School student back for her third year with ExPlorers. “It has biochemical, mechanical, industrial, and civil engineering.”
The camp challenges the participants to get creative with their newfound knowledge, then bring it back home. “The students are now able to say A, B, or C about phosphorus sustainability to someone on the street,” says Raphael Ayivi, a UNCG student working on his PhD in nanoscience “That’s what we are trying to do: help them get that message out and develop their interest in science.”
Everyday Experience Brought Down to Scale
ExPlorers is part of STEPS, or “Science and Technologies for Phosphorus Sustainability.” Funded by the National Science Foundation, this collaboration between ten universities and research institutions aims to decrease the world’s dependability on mined phosphorus.
North Carolina, with Florida, accounts for 75 percent of the United States’ phosphorus output. The world currently has stored enough phosphorus to last 50 years. While phosphorus is critical in many industries, particularly food production, its byproducts often end up in waterways due to runoff and contribute to dangerous algae blooms that devastate ecosystems.
Most mined phosphorus is used in agriculture, so the students also took a field trip to NC A&T’s farm. Poultry Research Specialist Mark Paylor led the tour. He brought first-hand experience of the challenges farmers deal with to raise healthy livestock and grow crops that eventually end up on the students’ dinner tables.
“Taking them to the farm to see where a majority of phosphorus is used and how it is introduced into a lot of those systems is impactful,” says Dr. Zelena Johnson ’24, a camp organizer who earned her PhD in nanoscience from UNCG. “They may wonder, ‘Why should we care? I don’t use phosphorus.’ But they do. The food they eat is grown with phosphorus. The protein they get is from animals that have consumed plants grown by phosphorus.”
“I get upset about how much waste is produced every day,” says Eliza “EC” Resuello from the Middle College at Forsyth Tech. “Hopefully, we can help study how to limit how much goes into the environment, and then see how we can slowly start to recover over the years.”
JSNN – a School that knows all about working with materials too small to see with the naked eye – put together interactive lab stations so that students could relate nanoscience and nanoengineering to their various interests and hobbies back home. Poshika Prabu, a rising tenth grader from Triangle Math and Science Academy, says one of her favorite activities was making poppings that go into boba tea. This taught her an engineering method called polymer cross-linking.
“My parents are always saying, ‘Why do you like boba?’ It’s because you can pop it in your mouth,” says Prabu. “I got to see how the membrane was enclosed and how the liquid was put inside.”
The lab activities were a plus for Elijah Dorsey from Weaver Academy. “I was expecting boring lectures for most of the week and then something fun at the end at the farm. But it’s all been interesting. We can talk freely with other classmates, working together, collaborating, and learning.”
“Sometimes in science, we have a hard time communicating these issues to lay people,” says Johnson. “The easiest people to communicate with are these students. They’re still learning about life and what’s out there. If we catch them early, they’re able to communicate with their peers and their families.”
Science Made Tangible with Sensors
All the experiences that week culminated in an interactive project with real-world implications. The students were assigned to small groups led by a graduate student to develop a sensor for improving phosphorus sustainability. They had to treat it as a potential resource for the future, considering how it impacts people, the environment, and how much it might cost.
“If you’re going into a business in anything, even scientific research, it’s all about the dollar bill,” says Johnson. “We have to pay for the research, the researchers, and the material. They also have to ask, is it sustainable? Will their product last generations? If their idea would negatively impact the environment, then it’s not an idea they want to follow.”
Resuello put her artistic skills to use in her group, designing a freshwater-friendly device that could be filled with sensors and filters. “I wasn’t expecting that I would be doing 3D modeling here,” says Resuello. “I have never done that before. And I’m happy that my model turned out not too bad. That’s one of the skills that I acquired.”
Each group created a 3D-printed prototype, and on the last day, they presented it in a “Shark Tank”-style pitch. Their families were invited to attend their presentations, further giving the students a sense of ownership for what they had learned.
Students present their sensor prototypes to their peers and families on the last day of ExPlorers.
Grads Build a Pathway for Knowledge
The camp’s message was made more effective by the leadership of graduate students from UNCG and NC A&T. This was an intentional choice by JSNN.
Ayivi has worked with ExPlorers since 2022. The camp meshes with his own research developing a molecularly impressive sensor for detecting phosphorus pesticides.
“It brings joy to me because I’m passionate about knowledge transfer,” says Ayivi. “Some young people don’t have people to make science fascinating to them. But if they can encounter it and interact with people, that makes science very friendly, very fun, and very informative.”
The graduate students also demonstrated to the camp participants how scientific discoveries are passed along: from student to student, from student to parents, then from parents to the community.
“Working with the grad students, there’s a connection there,” says Dorsey. “They’re younger. They’re in the field, so they know what’s currently happening. They know how to connect with professors.”
The students left the camp with much more than a 3D-printed prototype. They took home a new appreciation for how they enact change, as well as renewed confidence in exploring future careers in science.
Prabu made an hour-long drive from Apex to attend ExPlorers each day, and she says it was worth it. “I learned at this camp that phosphorus is really important, and I want to convey that to my parents and loved ones,” she says. “I can tell my parents to look at what they’re eating. That food has phosphorus in it. Your DNA has a phosphate backbone.”
“If you’re undecided about what you want to do for college, this camp is a good place to come,” says Alexander. “It doesn’t just focus on one aspect of STEM. It’s not just science. It’s not just chemistry. It’s not just technology. It focuses on everything.”

UNCG Shares Progress on Construction around Campus
Posted on August 13, 2024
Students, faculty, and staff who left the campus after the Spring 2024 Commencement ceremonies will notice a dramatic change when they return to UNC Greensboro in the fall. Among the most notable changes are the construction areas at the center of campus, particularly around Jackson Library, Moran Commons, and Stirling Street.
The chilled water loop is close to completion, as managed by UNCG Facilities Design and Construction (FDC). This project connects academic buildings, common areas, residence halls, and administrative offices at the center of campus to improve air conditioning. The process has taken many months, and some streets and sidewalks will be closed or restricted as the work winds down.
A staging area has been created on the Kaplan Commons lawn outside the library. This same area will likely be used again when UNCG begins its library renovation project.
Where we are
Construction was completed in the Mossman parking lot and along Stirling Street during the summer. Work is still underway between the Bryan School Building and Walker Parking Deck. Traffic impacts may be seen on Forest Street and trucks continue to come through while crews make final improvements to the Mossman building’s roof.
Stirling Street has reopened, but buses will continue to be rerouted to a temporary bus stop near the Walker traffic circle outside the library. Signage will indicate where buses and shuttles will pick up and drop off customers.
The Walker Parking Deck is still accessible, but the entrance and exit on Theta Street will remain closed for the time being.
The chilled water loop will be completed at Shaw Residence Hall, where workers will connect the south plant along the railroad tracks on Oakland Avenue and Forest Street with the plant on top of McIver Parking Deck.
As always, UNCG asks Spartans and visitors to be patient, plan accordingly, and remain respectful to the work crews sharing the campus in the coming months.
The FDC Campus Maps & GIS webpage has updated campus maps and parking maps. The webpage also has an interactive map with information about ADA access, lighting, dining, and other resources.
What happens next
FDC anticipates the chilled water construction in this area to be completed in Spring 2025. Older, building-dedicated chilled water systems are being removed as the buildings are tied into the loop, creating greater energy efficiency and savings.
Work will block the road at the north edge of the Walker traffic circle along the sidewalk to Shaw. The bus stop will be relocated during construction, and a single lane will be maintained during the remaining chilled water construction so that commuters and delivery truck drivers can reach the dining hall.
The Jackson Library renovation project nears the end of its Construction Documents phase. This is the first large-scale renovation of the library since the addition of the towers in 1973. It aims to meet UNCG’s growth, meeting students’ needs for a dynamic, technology-rich learning environment and intellectual community hub.
Other construction
Renovations continue at the Jefferson Suites as crews repair water damage to the windows and facade. It is scheduled to be finished in November. Soon the bidding process will begin for upgrades to Taylor Theatre’s mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and sprinkler systems.
Also anticipating construction bidding this year is the new Jeanne Tannebaum Center for Creative Practice, a multi-purpose cultural art space on West Gate City Boulevard. This space will encourage partnerships between UNCG and the Greensboro community by providing a flexible performance space, gallery, instructional and studio rooms, office and administrative space, a digital lab with low latency, and retail accommodations.
All UNCG students, faculty, and staff may follow FDC’s Construction Alerts and updates on Principal Projects for more information and evolving updates. UNCG thanks everyone for their participation as these critical projects move forward, in hopes of improving the learning experience for generations of students to come.

WGSS Workshop Encourages Advocacy for Feminist and Queer Politics
Posted on August 09, 2024
UNC Greensboro students often praise the campus’ diversity and welcoming spirit. It’s an environment that produces community activism and leadership in its students and alumni.
The workshop, SCHEME, took its name from an acronym of activities planned for the week – studying, challenging, healing, embodying and making every day.
Recruitment for the workshop targeted WGSS students from institutions all around North Carolina to converge at UNCG’s campus to build community learning within a feminist and queer politics framework.
“We hope that these students will share viewpoints and experiences and take what they learned at SCHEME to better serve their own home institutions and communities,” said Tiffany Holland, WGSS professor and co-organizer of the workshop.
Of the eleven attendees, six were from UNCG, but other participants represented Guilford College, UNC Asheville, and Appalachian State University. They ranged from a student who will start her first year at college this fall to another student who just graduated in the spring. Building community across campuses and breadth of the college experience made for interesting discussions and reflections.
Space for Expression
When Holland and other organizers were brainstorming how to structure the workshop, they wanted to make sure the participants felt empowered to help build the program to best serve their needs. Creative sessions with community members provided space for expression through art.
“We didn’t want to come down from on high about where we think the state of feminist and queer politics is now,” said Holland. “It was important to us for the student participants to be able to share what they have been creating and what they want to create.”
Throughout the workshop, thoughtful discussions and readings about how to facilitate open discussions were combined with sessions like printmaking and a Q&A with drag performers, which allowed the students to explore artful political expressions.
Luz Elena Borrayo graduated from UNCG in the spring with a B.A. in studio art. She joined the workshop to expand her advocacy skills but was surprised when SCHEME opened the workshop with a session for creating political prints.
“I was so excited to be creating with others! SCHEME allowed me to refocus my art and what my message is, speaking to my identity and perspective, in today’s society,” Borrayo said. “Even though I minored in WGSS, being a part of SCHEME helped me to feel more comfortable having conversations and asking questions.”
Basil Nelligan, a rising third-year art major from Guilford College, also enjoyed the way the workshop combined creative expression with leadership skills. “The interactive activities made the experience a lot more immersive,” he said. “As someone whose higher education experience is steeped in the Quaker tradition, I feel like I was able to contribute my viewpoint and also learn a lot from others who have wildly different experiences.”
“It was amazing,” said Holland. “The students learned about local queer and feminist histories on our campus and in the larger community and they were introduced to the feminist and anti-colonial practices used by our university’s archivist to preserve and honor our community’s stories.”
A Scheme for the Next Phase
Organizers were pleased with how participants received the pilot SCHEME workshop and are looking ahead to how the program can expand. With the goal of providing resources to more students, they are considering a long weekend format open to students across the state, virtual and in-person workshops, and resources that can be offered online.
The inspiration Nelligan found in the pilot workshop drives the SCHEME organizers in UNCG’s WGSS program to continue to extend their leadership and reach even broader audiences.
“I’m already planning to bring back the information I gathered at SCHEME to the leadership spaces I’m involved in at Guilford College,” he said. “I’m using the information to help formulate plans for activities that will engage people.”

UNCG’s Resident Advisors Cheer on New Spartans
Posted on August 15, 2024
Students are now counting down the days to their first day of class at UNC Greensboro. They’ve learned tricks and tips from New Student Transitions & First Year Experience, reviewed their class schedules, met new friends at SOAR, and set up their dorm rooms during Stop, Drop, and Roll. Now it’s time for those students to make UNCG their second home.
New students should take comfort that the residential staff understand what they are going through. The resident advisors (RAs) in the 28 Housing and Residence Life domiciles are fellow students. They know what it’s like to balance deadlines with hobbies, sports, well-being, and friend groups at UNCG.

UNCG Archaeology Students Uncover Local History in Old Salem
Posted on August 08, 2024
Gates Emmert’s hands were tinted orange as she pulled a bandana out of her pocket to wipe the sweat from her brow. She beamed as she explained what her classmates were looking for in the red clay of an empty lot between preserved historic buildings in Old Salem.
“It’s not every day that you get to do archaeology in your backyard!” Emmert said. She and her classmates were clearly in their element as they brushed aside dirt and dust to reveal a brick foundation about six inches beneath the grassy surface.
The group of UNC Greensboro students were tasked to uncover evidence of a more than 200-year-old pottery kiln as part of their Field Methods of Archaeology and Analysis of Archaeological Data classes under lecturer Dr. Geoffrey Hughes. Hughes speculated that this brickwork might be part of the kiln or a related structure.
Dr. Hughes helps students identify findings.Katherine Rock claps dust off her gloves.Gates Emmert sifts sand from artifacts.
Sifting Through Evidence of the Past
Dr. Geoffrey Hughes explains what the class is hoping to uncover in the field school.
Hughes has been studying the Moravian settlements since the 1990s: “One of the things that makes the Moravians’ Wachovia settlement so fascinating to me is the fact that you have this planned religious community in the back country of North Carolina, which is very connected to an emerging world system.”
From 2016 to 2018, Hughes led excavations in Old Salem that found evidence that an experimental pottery kiln had been built in 1793 and used until 1805. If excavators could dig deeper and find examples of pottery that was made here, archaeologists could determine advancements in the potters’ tools and craftsmanship that kept their community relevant in the early 19th century. It was the perfect project for a field school project for Hughes’ UNCG students.
“The main takeaway from this dig has been the amount of information that you can find out about people in the past, just from looking at little artifacts,” said Katherine Rock, a fourth-year student with plans to become an archaeological technician after graduation. “The emotional connection is extremely important. Being able to walk in the same place that somebody did 200 years ago is pretty fascinating.”
Digging for Career Experience
The five-week dig was a partnership between UNCG and Old Salem Museums and Gardens. As part of the partnership, Old Salem set aside space in their visitor center for an archaeology lab. At the end of each day, the students brought the artifacts they found to the lab for cleaning and processing.
“There’s only so much you can learn in the classroom,” admitted Hughes. “Field schools are essential for any future archaeologist. What we’re doing here is providing our students with career-ready skills, so that as soon as they graduate, they can go on to become entry-level archaeologists.”
In addition to learning how to excavate the site and catalog the artifacts, the students were also able to engage with visitors about what they found and what the findings told them about the early Moravian settlers.
As a fourth-year student who would like to work in a natural history museum or Library of Congress after graduation, Emmert says making inferences based on traits of artifacts they uncovered was particularly interesting: “We have found a lot of variety in glazes and colors and we can see that the potters’ techniques changed over time.”
A Partnership of Historic Proportions
Hughes and Brown review cataloged artifacts in the lab.
Although the work sometimes felt slow and tedious, Hughes was pleased with the field school’s findings. “Old Salem will be able to use our artifacts to talk to the public about the importance of Moravian history here,” he said. “We’re finding evidence of just how technologically advanced the Moravians really were.”
Johanna Brown, Old Salem’s Chief Curator and Director of Collections agreed wholeheartedly. “We can learn so much from the material culture that we excavate, so having UNCG students here to do this work enables our research to continue even though Old Salem doesn’t have a full-time archaeologist,” she said. “It is critically important to our understanding of Moravian history and ceramic traditions in America as a whole.”
For the student archaeologists, uncovering North Carolina history and participating in Old Salem’s preservation efforts was extremely rewarding.
“Participating in this field school has really made me hone in on what I want to do,” said Rock. “This is my dream job!”
