Nebraska State Sen. Myron Dorn took one look at the SONY Infinity Wall in the Davis Global Center and smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDo you get football on this screen?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Dorn, who represents legislative District 30, toured the Davis Global Center\u2019s iEXCEL program on Sept. 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Dorn explored educational technology, such as the 2D interactive digital iWalls, the holographic theater and the five-sided laser cave, accessible to UNMC students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWho would have thought 30 years ago that we would be here today?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Representing a district that includes Beatrice and Gage County, Sen. Dorn took a particular interest in how this technology is being used to serve rural parts of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis work is critically important,\u201d he said. \u201cJust because you live 40 miles away from the hospital doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t get adequate care.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Dorn met with UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, MD, and heard updates on the UNMC-University of Nebraska at Kearney rural health education project and the Behavioral Health Education Center of Nebraska.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leaving the Davis Global Center, he expressed excitement for the work that was being done throughout the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the UNMC community, he said: \u201cKeep up the good work. I think you are doing fantastic. I can’t wait to come back in a year or two and see what’s changed. You may think that you’re just doing a little bit here and there, but you are making huge strides. It’s so exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
