As the academic year came to an end, the University of Maryland’s A. James Clark School of Engineering’s Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering (CPSE) program at the Universities of Shady Grove (USG) hosted a graduation dinner celebration for their senior class of 2023. The celebration was on the evening of Tuesday, May 23rd. With there only being two seniors in the graduating class of the CPSE program at USG, it was a small but joyous celebration. Senior, Kaiyue Zhou, was in attendance as well as family, guests, academic partners, the CPSE junior class, and the CPSE faculty.

As dinner was served, there was ample and meaningful discussion happening, especially between the senior class, junior class, and the faculty. Much of this discussion included how students found out about their major, the CPSE community summer program, and current student coursework/expectations. Most of the students in the program remarked how they found out about this program during their time at Montgomery College (whether it was through an advisor, another classmate, or a representative of the CPSE program). One of the students from the junior class said he attended the CPSE summer program in 2022, before he was a student of the CPSE program. Now this student and the other students in the junior class are volunteering to help with this year’s summer program as rising seniors.

495Movers was established on May 18th, 2009 by two best friends. They created 495Movers to change the way people felt about their moving experience. 495Movers established its reputation by being a pioneer in up-front, no-hassle pricing, and including all of the packing materials and other fees already included and built into the price you see from the very beginning. 495Movers leads the way when it comes to transparency and putting customers first. Over the past 14 years, 495Movers has grown to be one of the elite moving companies in the DMV area, growing from just 1 truck to more than 20 trucks on the road today.

495Movers recently launched 495 Self-Storage, a new service line that is sure to round out the customer experience when it comes to moving and storage. Where most moving companies can only offer warehouse space which adds logistical hassles and expenses, 495Movers now has 3 self-storage facilities. They just announced two new exciting facilities right in the heart of Rockville MD including a newly constructed, fully climate-controlled facility with 24-hour video surveillance at 12111 Parklawn Dr Rockville, MD, 20852. The company just purchased the former Tri Mini Storage at 12330 Parklawn Drive and plans to redevelop the 16,000 sqft facility into a 100,000 sqft brand-new storage building.
