As part of the Office of Research Staff Appreciation Day, Nanotech West staff members / Ohio Sensor and Semiconductor Innovation Platform engineers attended an event on Friday, September 11th at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. Lunch was provided overlooking the new Africa Savannah exhibit (very impressive, by the way, for this writer, who has been to that continent), and after that we were allowed to roam the Zoo.
Of course, it started pouring rain at about 2:15 PM, but that didn’t faze anybody.
Just after lunch, some of the NTW staff/OSSIP engineering staff stumbled onto Ohio State University President Dr. Michael Drake, at the Elephant exhibit. He happened to just be touring his grandchildren through the #1 rated US zoo (see picture below: L: Jay DeLombard: LC: Paul Steffen: RC: Dr. Michael Drake; R: Ms. Aimee Bross Price).
