Minnesota college launches first-in-nation bicycle fabrication degree

RED WING, Minn. -- If teachers want students to work hard, be engaged, and learn well, those teachers encourage students to work on something they care about, something that fits their passions.
That’s exactly what Travis Thul, dean of trade and technology, hopes to do with the new bicycle design and fabrication program at Minnesota State College Southeast in Red Wing.
The idea to start the program came from another program that already exists at the college - the guitar repair and building program.
