Caitlin Kirby, a first-year graduate student in the GRL, has hit the ground running! She recently submitted her first grant proposal and the lab is excited to announce that she received funding from Michigan State University’s Be Spartan Green program for her project entitled: Spartans’ Climate Change Knowledge and Empowerment. Caitlin will use her grant funds to “evaluate [student] understanding of and attitudes towards climate change” and “develop workshops to address common knowledge gaps and provide tools for students to act to impact climate change”.
I am so impressed with Caitlin’s drive, her ability to write a winning grant proposal, and the new ideas she brings into the lab every day! Congratulations, Caitlin!
