Rick Conner, a senior majoring in paper science and engineering (@ncstatefb), was one of 46 students to travel to Finland as part of the most recent Paper International Experience (PIE). 

"One thing that I learned about myself is that I absolutely love the paper industry and am excited to see what new innovations will present themselves in the next 30 or so years. The trip had our group visiting both active production sites and research and development sites, and some of the lectures had me excited about the future of sustainable manufacturing."
