WVU-P BIO 109 students are busy dissecting pig hearts today. By using a pig heart, students are able to observe the major chambers, valves, and vessels of the heart. A pig heart is used because it is very similar to the human heart in structure, size, & function.
Sophomores from Magnolia High School visited us today. During their tour, students were able to pick three program areas of interest to visit and participate in hands-on activities with instructors and students.

Students from MOVTI's Law and Public Safety and SMHS's Forensics class spent the last two days learning about The Tyler County Emergency Management's Search and Rescue team. On day one, they covered topics such as man tracking, which included finding and measuring footprints, measuring gaits, finding and preserving evidence and tracking by using canines. Day two included public safety and UAS drones. They were shown means of tracking a moving suspect, thermal packets and payload drops.
