FIRST Robotics CompetitionOver the weekend, MSC Southeast was involved with the FIRST Robotics Regional Competition at the La Crosse Center in La Crosse, Wisconsin (Friday, April 5th and Saturday, April 6th). This event pulled together robotics teams from high schools across the region, including schools in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond. 

Paul Sorenson, CNC Machine Tool instructor, helped mentor the Winona/Cotter HS First Robotics team, which took 17th overall out of 54 teams! Paul Melling, a former MSC Southeast student, also served as a volunteer mentor.

CNC Machine Tool instructor Roger Holland and Winona Admissions Representative Chris Cook were at the event to talk with students and parents about the programs available at Southeast. These programs include: CNC Machining, Welding, Electrical Engineering, Network Administration, and two new programs for Fall 2019, Bicycle Design and Fabrication, and Mechatronics Technology.
