Dean Nowell has announced that Oceanography graduate student Emilie Flemer and undergraduates Laura Hanson and Evan Howard are recipients of Clarence H. Campbell Endowed Lauren Donaldson Scholarships. These awards provide one year of resident tuition.
A UW partnership of Friday Harbor Laboratories, Department of Biology and Schools of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences and Oceanography were recently awarded a five-year NSF GK-12 grant. The GK-12 program
"provides funding for graduate students in NSF-supported science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines to acquire additional skills that will broadly prepare them for professional and scientific careers in the 21st century. Through interactions with teachers and students in K-12 schools and with other graduate fellows and faculty from STEM disciplines, graduate students can improve communication, teaching, collaboration, and team building skills while enriching STEM learning and instruction in K-12 schools. Through this experience, graduate students can gain a deeper understanding of their own STEM research."
Three of our graduate students are recipients of the eight awards made for 2008-2009: Colleen Kellogg, Jonathan Kellogg, and Elizabeth Tobin.
Undergraduate Evan Howard has been invited to join Phi Beta Kappa based upon his excellent academic record and interest in the liberal arts.
Congratulations to all!
