\nAs is typical in a liberal arts program, class discussion ranged across several disciplines. For instance, students talked about the ethical dilemmas of 3-D printing, including trademark and copyright issues. They raised the question: What if you could print human organ replacements but only the super-wealthy could afford them?\n<\/p>\n

\n\"3-DThe class attracted students with a variety of interests. Senior Toni Jackson of Lexington said it\u2019s a good way to merge two things she enjoys: computer science and art. \u201cIt\u2019s a really fun and creative technology.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nAs for what 3-D printing means for our future, sophomore Wilson Boyer of Prospect, Ky., said: \u201cIt seems like it\u2019s not just going to be a device that you make toys with, but it will actually change our society.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
