Join the URP community service project for the annual MLK Day of Service on Monday, January 19th!
We’ll be volunteering at YouthCare (in downtown Seattle) from 10am-1pm.
Project description from the organization we’ll be volunteering with:
YouthCare serves homeless and under-served youth from ages 12-24, and we rely on the passion and support of community members, like you, who want to support valuable programs and opportunities that enable under-served youth to become self-sufficient and build better futures.  

Do you have an interest in community education and outreach, and a desire to do work that’s
good for the environment?
Public Relations and Social Marketing firm Colehour + Cohen (www.colehourcohen.com) is looking for dynamic, paid outreach interns for part-time work from January – August 2015. 

Do you have the opportunity to present your research/capstone work at a conference or symposium? The College of the Environment has a fund to help support our students (including undergrads) as they share their research. 

This Week:

Whales, science, and scientific whaling in the International Court of Justice

 
Week two of the 2015 Bevan Series in Sustainable Fisheries takes place this Thursday at 4:30 in FSH 102. 

For those who haven’t been there, the SAFS offices are located steps away from Environmental Studies – just across the parking lot. This could be a very convenient location for a student job if you are in this major.
