Volunteer Opportunities
Monitoring the recovery of campus lakes after dredging
Dr. Emily Kane and Dr. Christian Cox received a sustainability grant to monitor the ponds on campus that were dredged. They encourage students to volunteer to help with surveys one per month. This is something that involves a low level of commitment in terms of training and they only ask that students sign up on Dr. Kane’s website so she knows who to expect and can send necessary information.
