Leadbetter Beach 12-19-15

Over the last weekend, some colleagues (Michaela Miller and Dorothy Horn) and I tabled at the ” 2015 Lakey Peterson Keiki Bowl”. The event held surf contests, surf lessons from Lakey and the high-five beach cleanup. Our booth represented CSU Channel Islands and the ESRM department. We presented on the awareness of micro-plastics and marine debris. It was a rewarding experience to enlighten and inform the younger kids and parents about our oceans.

Opportunity for Students: Panetta Internship

The Panetta Institute’s Congressional Internship Program, combines a rigorous two-week academic orientation at the Panetta Institute along with an experiential education as a Panetta Intern in a Washington, D.C. office of a California member of the U.S. House of Representatives.  While serving in our nation’s capital the student also attends weekly seminars.  Upon completion of all requirements, interns earn full-time academic units that will be posted to their university transcripts.  All program costs are covered, including housing, ground transportation, travel to and from Washington, D.C. and a living stipend.  Any academic major may apply; the program is open to qualified students regardless of income.

The program is open to outstanding students in any academic major, subject to the established criteria. Applicants must be a Junior or Senior during AY 2016, a California resident and must be willing to undergo a background check. Interested students should complete this application  by no later than noon on Friday, February 12, 2016.  An interdisciplinary selection team will evaluate applications and interview finalists. The selection committee will forward its recommendation to President Rush, who makes the final selection.

To complete this application students need to submit (via upload) several things. They should be prepared with these documents before beginning the application.

  1. A resume;
  2. A copy of your most recent CI transcript;
  3. A copy of your transcript from any other college or university you have attended;

Yes as for most ofthe people who know me they know my very mischievous bulldog. She was born on the 4th of September of 2016 yes she is just a puppy.  She has grown throughout the months of me being away and at school I still am able to see her every second possible.
