The first-ever Wolfpack STEM Tailgate brought science, football, and community together in the FanZone during NC State’s home game against Campbell!
The goal of this event was to make STEM fun and accessible to everyone, especially those who might not typically attend a dedicated science event. Visitors explored interactive demos, hands-on experiments, and met scientists from across NC State’s STEM community.
The tailgate was organized by Jory Weintraub, with help from Lisa Metzger, Olivia Mathieson, and Jessie Maier, who also hosted engaging tables filled with science activities and curiosity-driven challenges. Alongside many other volunteer scientists, they helped show that STEM can be as exciting as a Wolfpack touchdown!
It was an incredible day of outreach, collaboration, and Pack pride, science has truly joined the game day tradition!
