This time, we went to the students; HostDime&#8217;s VP of USA Operations Dennis Henry visited Robinswood Middle School to meet the students in the S.W.A.G. (Students Who Admire Greatness) Club.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The purpose of the S.W.A.G club is to build student self-esteem and confidence through active engagement in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) and other related career activities. This organization provides students with the development of positive relationships with their peers and other professionals in the fields of interest and the opportunity to build professional relationships with individuals in the specific fields of STEM. &#8211; SWAG club founder Candace Finley of Robinswood Middle School.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The students seemed to appreciate the visit.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The kids can&#8217;t stop talking about Mr. Henry. On behalf of the S.W.A.G club, we thank you and your wife for taking your time to come out and speak to us. Don&#8217;t be surprised if they come to apply for a job when they are ready.

We are creating a \u2018how-it-works\u2019 space in the facility so young students can be exposed to the behind-the-scenes of how a data center works and how it powers the cloud. We strongly believe this will ignite the curiosity of young students in the wide area of technology that is vital to the STEM agenda.
