Collegiate Association (TEECA) Fort Hays chapter presented industrial works like a board game made from recycled materials and mechanical arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have to build, design, and manufacture a certain number of projects every year,\u201d said Jake Kirchhoff, a junior and TEECA Manufacturing team member. \u201cThis year, we had to make a Backgammon game. We made one for each team member, which ended up being about eight games.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the other creators, TEECA Fort Hays wanted to foster creative thinking through its works by showing ingenuity and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re showcasing TEECA and what we do here,\u201d Kirchhoff said. \u201c[We want to show] that we have creative minds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other works were displayed inside the Schmidt Foundation Center for Art and Design, where art pieces of various mediums were hung on display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s more than just empirical and non-empirical that needs to be looked at as the creativity of the university,\u201d said Jennifer Sauer, Forsyth\u2019s librarian for scholar and electronic services. \u201cYou can see the depth of thought and inquiry in all of the artists: self-expression and the handling of current events. We have some amazing artists within the undergraduate and graduate divisions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\" data-effect=\"slide\"><div
