BAY INFORMED DISCUSSION SERIES @ URI
The Bay Informed is a student-led organization at URI's Graduate School of Oceanography. A group of us at GSO work to find other students on our campus and the surrounding universities who are interested in speaking to a broad audience. The Bay Informed Discussion Series allows scientists to work on their communication skills by describing their detailed work in an accessible format for everyone from elementary school children to the seniors in our community. In the winter, I gave my first Bay Informed talk - you can watch it online and find other recorded speakers here.
CREW @ PLUDuring the Fall season of 2015, Laura began rowing for PLU. Her last varsity race was at the Charlie Brown Regatta in Portland, Oregon. In total, PLU walked away with three wins from this regatta. She continued as a member of the team throughout the Spring of 2016 as a team photographer, but could no longer actively row due to sports related injuries. For more information on the team and upcoming races, visit PLU's athletics page.
