Story
A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held next Wednesday at Apollo University to dedicate the new Zoe Graystone Computer Science Wing. The building is named for the daughter of Apollo University alumni Daniel Graystone, CEO and founder of Graystone Industries. Groundbreaking began two years ago on the state-of-the-art multi million-cubit facility, which features networked lecture halls, state-of-the-art research labs, and Graystone computers and holobands in every classroom. This new wing will allow the university to expand its computer science curricula and attract the brightest academic stars and cutting edge researchers from throughout the 12 Colonies.
Daniel Graystone, who holds a PhD from Apollo University's Computer Science program, stated that he wants this facility, "To inspire up-and-coming computer scientists and robotics engineers - especially young women." Graystone hopes that his daughter Zoe, currently attending the Athena Academy, will one day attend classes in the building that now bears her name.
The ceremony will last from 2-4 pm on the Apollo University campus. Members of the faculty, Caprica City government officials, leaders from the Caprica tech industry, and the Graystone family are expected to attend.
