Many ASU students are taking the time and making the effort to step beyond their schoolwork and pursue real-world learning experiences by getting involved in community service projects and related volunteer ventures. Among them is Hassonil Jones, who is pursuing a degree in chemical engineering in the School for the Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy, part of the Fulton Schools. Through the school’s Summer Research Initiative program, Jones is exploring possibilities of an alternative for lithium-ion batteries, which have a history of exploding. The project is part of his work to help overcome sustainability challenges through the Fulton Schools’ Grand Challenge Scholars Program.
