Freshmen in Dr. Phil McCreanor’s engineering hon Freshmen in Dr. Phil McCreanor’s engineering honors class have adapted bubble toys that are being distributed to Right on Track Pediatric Therapy at Navicent Health. Working in pairs, the students opened up the toys, rewired them with new plugs and switches, removed four of the bubble wands, and reassembled the toys, so they looked brand new.  The toys are now activated using separate, large buttons that are easier for children to push and allow for more engagement. Occupational therapists are using the toys in sessions with pediatric patients to help meet goals related to physical and cognitive performance and support communication and language goals. Read the full story at den.mercer.edu.
These two buildings on the edge of Mercer's origin These two buildings on the edge of Mercer's original campus in Penfield, Georgia, are reminders of a more bustling time. The first building was constructed after Mercer relocated to Macon and served as a general store and gas station. It's been standing in Penfield since at least the 1940s but has been closed for decades. For about 50 years, it was the only shop in town. The second storefront was home to the Colclough and Sharps Store, where Mercer students used to gather and shop. It was located in an area known as Penfield Village, which included boarding houses that have long since burned. #MercerTraditons

Meet Jep Cephus, a maintenance staff member for Ph Meet Jep Cephus, a maintenance staff member for Physical Plant on our Atlanta campus. #WorkerBears . HOW LONG HE'S BEEN AT MERCER: Cephus has been a Mercer staff member for 40-plus years, but he first stepped onto the Atlanta campus as a student when it was known as Atlanta Baptist College before merging with Mercer. He came on scholarship as a basketball recruit for the Atlanta Golden Eagles. Cephus graduated with a degree in psychology in 1974 and started working at Mercer later that year. He was promoted from groundskeeper to maintenance to assistant director. He is semi-retired now and works on campus three days a week. . WHAT HE LOVES MOST ABOUT HIS WORK: “Working in Physical Plant, we’ve always been a team organization. Once you have a good team, it makes coming to work much more pleasant. I work with great people," he said. . Although the Atlanta campus has grown a lot since the 1970s, Cephus said he has always loved its rural look and setting and its family feel. It has been filled with kind, down-to-earth people and great leadership, including Dr. Jean Hendricks, the first dean of Mercer's College of Arts and Sciences in Atlanta.
