It is time for your weekly 3D printing and STEM education news roundup! STEM education really made headlines this week as the immigration topic was very popular in Washington D.C.

Below you will find the trending articles for the week, and as always, if we missed anything that you would like included please share it in a comment on this post…thanks!
