“This grant allows us to build on the work we’re already doing to support student well-being and make an even greater impact through innovative education and prevention programs,” says Margo Thorwart.
Connelly hopes her film makes those who watch it reflect on what it means to ‘believe survivors’ and the impact of having or not having that kind of support.
Grant will help Millersville develop, implement and evaluate underage drinking and dangerous drinking campus-wide.
The new award seeks to highlight exceptional Millersville University employees.
Did you know that each summer, Millersville professors and other professors from PASSHE schools head down to the Chincoteague Bay Field Station (@cbfieldstation) in Wallops Island, Virginia, to teach courses in the field? <br /> <br /> This year, we accompanied conservation biologist and professor Dr. Aaron Haines and behavior ecologist, professor and department chair Dr. Brent Horton on some of their field experiences with students. Together, we went on hikes, observed the famous ponies, hunted for ghost crabs, and went trawling to observe and document marine life, up close and in person. <br /> <br /> Field experiences like these are paramount for up-and-coming scientists to get a feel for what this work can really be like - including wearing long sleeves and a full-body mesh suit to protect themselves from biting mosquitos in 90 to 100 degree heat! <br /> <br /> Biology grads: did you ever take a course at the Chincoteague Bay Field Station?
