It was a great day for Masonry! Thanks to all of the students who stopped by and our partners for making the event happen each year.

The UT San Antonio Masonry Day is organized in partnership with the San Antonio Masonry Contractors Association (SAMCA) to provide Construction Science and Management, Civil Engineering, and Architecture students with a unique hands-on learning experience in masonry construction. Through live demonstrations and direct guidance from skilled professional masons, students gain practical experience laying bricks and blocks while developing a deeper understanding of masonry materials, methods, and best practices.

This event complements classroom instruction by bringing masonry construction concepts to life, allowing students to connect theory with practice in a meaningful and memorable way. We are grateful to SAMCA and the participating masons for their continued partnership and for generously sharing their expertise with the next generation of construction professionals.

Every summer, massive mats of Sargassum seaweed wash ashore along the Gulf Coast. While it provides open-ocean shelter in small doses, recent overgrowth has suffocated ecosystems, driven away tourists and released toxic gases.

The culprit? Agricultural and urban runoff dumps excess nitrogen and phosphorus into waterways, feeding harmful algal blooms and creating marine dead zones.

Researchers in Klesse College are tackling both challenges through one single circular solution.

Shalinee Kavadiya, assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering, is leading a team to transform harvested seaweed into 3D-printed, reusable filtration modules designed to capture runoff nutrients before they reach the ocean. Working alongside co-principal investigator Vikram Kapoor, Ph.D., the team dries and powders the invasive seaweed to create composite materials for porous, recyclable filtration units.

SA+P Studio Brief

Isaac Knott’s experience at Klesse College shows the value of learning by doing. As part of a summer research project at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West, Isaac worked alongside fellow graduate students to measure, document and research historic buildings as part of the Historic American Buildings Survey. Their work earned second place in the prestigious Charles E. Peterson Competition.

For Isaac, the experience went beyond documenting architecture. It gave him a deeper understanding of place, materials and architectural history through hands-on research. This is the kind of immersive experience we want for students at Klesse College, where classroom learning becomes real-world knowledge and preparation for their future careers.
