Today is a very special day for us as we celebrate the amazing students who participated in our fellowship programs. Annabelle Kelton (The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga) and Sabrina Gonzalez (TexasA&M) described their experiences as Guest Engagement Educators, and their evaluation processes.


Guest Engagement Education Fellows Annabelle Kelton & Sabrina Gonzales report that 60% of our guests engaged with the Nobody Trashes Tennessee plastic vortexes and 50% watched the videos about keeping our waterways clean by reducing roadside litter.



Operations Fellow Sierra Jackson (Dalton State College) spent her summer with us taking a deep dive into the systems supporting the health of our aquatic animalsβ¦including: backwashing techniques, protein skimmers, ozone systems, and knowledge of the nitrogen cycle. #science #Chemistry


For the first time, we offered a water quality fellowship. Esther McFall (The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga) built upon her environmental science studies by examining disinfectant protocols using a spectrophotometer (and a whole lotta math). #science #chemistry #Math #Technology
