A Safer Wall Outlet
Roughly 2,400 children in the United States are injured by electric shocks from wall outlets each year, and tripping over electrical cords is another hazard, especially for older adults. To help eliminate these risks, Chirag Goel ’21 and his team at Tego created a magnetic wall outlet that can help prevent injuries and hazards while improving wall outlet accessibility.

I was stunned to see that Maresca and Moore's bag is made of leather, the use of which supports cruelty to animals. As successful fashion designer Stella McCartney said in 2012, “Using leather to make a handbag is cruel. But it’s also not modern; you’re not pushing innovation” (New York Times Magazine, 2-22-12). I am saddened that this is the best these women could do.
