It's been an unpredictable past three quarters and incredibly unique time to have my #POECap experience. I can't believe it's come to an end! Peace out, @ENVIR492!

Though reading for research could be exhaustive work at times, I felt that my capstone experience reignited my desire to read more books in the new year! 📖📖 #POECap #ENVIR492

Some advice for future capstoners: Attend webinars as part of your research! It is so refreshing to hear from people in real time rather than just reading about their ideas. I also find the informal nature and language used at webinars is more accessible than an academic paper!

@allisonkirste Having study buddies and not feeling alone in your classes is especially important in pandemic times when community is harder to build than ever. Capstone is 3 quarters long and it's great to have someone to go to for help/advice/camaraderie when you need it! Love ya buddy!! <33

@allisonkirste I wish I had known this too!! #ENVIR492 #POECap

Great job to all my fellow classmates from @envir492 for the hard work that went into presenting at the #POECap capstone symposium!! Glad that we can all finally take a big sigh of relief together knowing that it was a job well done :)

Shoutout to @allisonkirste who presented her poster on Communicating the Climate Crisis at the #POEcap symposium last week! I am so proud of your work with the KCCAT and your poster looked fantastic!! We did it!

@Amber_Pfeifer Thanks, I hope you enjoyed the presentation! :)

Yes! I love the story of Sky Woman, excited to hear your presentation tomorrow! #POEcap #ENVIR492

@leemegan143 Thanks for tuning in to my presentation, @leemegan143!

Shoutout to the session 1 presenters. You all killed it :) #POEcap

Welcome to my live-tweeting of the #POECap symposium! Can't wait to share with you what I learn today :)

@allisonkirste Excited to culminate my senior year with this final project! Scared of what everyone will think about my work... #POECap

@KaitlynBirkhol2 I'm nervous too! Also can't believe this is the last big academic accomplishment of my college career. So surreal, but glad it's happening over Zoom! The nerves would've been way higher if it were in person

I'm so grateful to my experience in my university Indigenous Food Sovereignty class last year for inspiring my research! Now I can't wait to share the beautiful story of Sky Woman (pictured below) with more people

I will be speaking about my work with @OrgFarmSchool at the #POECap symposium this Wednesday! Here are some teaser pics of my socially distanced visit there this summer. I love the piggies 😍😍

Forever grateful to @techie4good for being a teacher, engineer, and woman I've looked up to for the whole of my professional life!! I wouldn't be where I am without her <3

@AOC is so cool and so inspirational 😭😭!! Absolute boss woman and I can't wait to see all that she accomplishes

@leemegan143 @FoDiscoveryPark Yes Megan, get those transferrable skills!!!! 👏👏🌳🌲

#ENVIR492 shoutout to @FoDiscoveryPark for hosting my capstone internship this summer! I learned such valuable lessons and worked with some AWESOME people.

@LizLandefeld These are incredible, Liz!

@KaitlynBirkhol2 Even with the diagram I still can't comprehend the size of these guys! Whales are so awesome

I don't know why but this is just wild to me. Nature is crazy #ocean twitter.com/oceana/status/…

@EnvironmentHead #offthegrid

Really excited to hear from #POECap alumni tomorrow about hunting for and securing a job! I'm curious how much COVID-19 has really affected the availability of jobs in the environmental field. Anyone have any data on this? #Envir492
