AWRA Student Chapter at University of Washington Celebrates Earth Day
By Dr. Faisal Hossain - University of Washington Dept. of Civil & Environmental Engineering
The AWRA student chapter at University of Washington celebrated Earth Day in April in collaboration with the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE). The chapter took part in two exhibitions on campus and showcased sustainability-related research and success stories to the public. This was the first major activity of the chapter since COVID after it was recently re-established thanks to efforts of new student members of CEE (see http://students.washington.edu/awra/). AWRA-WA section is grateful to Shahzaib Khan (current President) for getting the chapter re-established on campus through the University student activities office. Matthew Bonner, an environmental engineering student, led the representation of CEE and partnered with the AWRA chapter to educate the public on the impact of sustainability-related research on campus.
