	There has been increased interest in many academic communities to include, on campus, a physical space where students engage in ''"active hands-on learning."'' These physical spaces are known by many names, but are commonly referred to as ''"maker spaces," fabrication labs ("fab labs"), or "innovation centers."'' Although these physical spaces were initially developed by STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) disciplines, they are beginning to support other innovative initiatives emerging from a variety of non-STEM disciplines. The SOfIA program at Monmouth College represents the "academic-leg" of a "maker space" by supporting this ''active, hands-on learning'' across campus; as might be expected the SOfIA program was proposed and managed by physics, chemistry and now history faculty members. One might say that Monmouth College is doing things a bit backwards, by engaging in maker space programs before even having the most prominent academic maker space department, engineering. Physics and Chemistry departments at Monmouth College have traditionally engaged in many active hands-on learning activities through their research requirements. The addition of an engineering program will be able to take advantage of the existing resources (3d printing, laser cutting/etching, machine shop, electronics, etc.) to further support this maker space/innovation movement across campus.
