@LilyAstone After going through the process this is such good advice! I had to remind myself that it was all a learning experience and to have fun during it! congrats lily for being done!! #envir492

Hey #ENVIR490 students, as I reflect on my capstone experience I just wanted to say try to enjoy this opportunity as much as possible. There might be moments where you're overwhelmed and think you can't do it, but believe me when I say you can! #ENVIR492 #Reflection

@JusticeCorrea It blows my mind that we fit an entire years worth of work onto one poster 🤯 Still now sure how I did it #envir492

I might've procrastinated a tad, but it's been a busy week. How is everyone's edits on their synthesis draft coming along? #envir492

Congrats to all my #envir492 friends for completing their capstone presentations!! Day 2 of the #POEcap was incredibly informative and very well done by all the presenters 🥳

@islascott21 Thank you so much for coming! It's crazy how much emotions can strengthen our relationship to climate issues and influence us to make a change #poecap #envir492

Currently attending @vanessastokel ‘s presentation on the challenges of science communication! I enjoyed how she spoke of past experiences where people claimed emotions shouldn’t apply to science and then completely disproved them with her results! Emotions are powerful! #POEcap

@masonnwrenn Thank you for reaffirming my decision to use pink and for coming to listen to me present at the #poecap symposium! Hopefully you learned something new about science communication 🤗 #envir492

I love that @vanessastokel 's project is on effective science communication/visual aids in communication and her poster is pink. Yes this is very visually pleasing for me. #poecap

Congrats to all of the day 1 #poecap presenters! It's crazy to think that we're done with the hardest part of #envir492 🤯 Can't wait to attend day 2 lightning talks next week!

The capstone symposium is happening in less than one hour! Come join to hear me talk about science communication and salmon habitat restoration! #poecap #envir492

I feel like this weekend was the last break I'll get till graduation since there is so much happening in the next two weeks, but it was nice while it lasted 😅 #envir492

For this week's #envir492 prompt, I definitely look up to @SylviaEarle and her work to protect the oceans! I'm extremely interested in being able to combine my passions of scuba diving and protecting marine environments, so I hope I get to pursue this one day 🪸

@itsonalease If you can, record your interviews on Zoom since it'll create a transcript for you! It makes the work so much easier to go through after #envir492

Hey #ENVIR490, #ENVIR492, and #uwpoe! Does anyone have any advice regarding conducting #interviews for their capstone #research?

@aprilptea Me enjoying my weekend, only to come to the crippling realization that Wednesday is THREE DAYS from now #envir492

Me this weekend having fun in the nice weather but also thinking about how the poster symposium is THIS WEDNESDAY #ENVIR492

@MaryKennelly99 Pretty sure I made my poster a few hours before it was due, so I definitely have a lot of edits to do 😅 #envir492

Anyone elses first poster draft being completely redesigned? My first draft was definitely made in a time crunch and doesn't look the greatest haha #envir492

I simply have no idea where the past six weeks of this quarter have gone... can't believe the symposium is in two weeks either 🤯 #envir492

@rachelneroutsos I definitely feel overwhelmed with the amount of drafts we have to do, but I want my final submission to be my best work! Still have some work to do, but I appreciate all the feedback #envir492

It's crazy the Capstone symposium is only two weeks away! How is everyone feeling about their presentation second order drafts? #ENVIR492 #POEcap

The Coast Salmon Partnership is doing incredible work to restore natural habitats to pristine conditions by removing fish barriers! These barriers (like pipes) prevent fish from traveling upstream. Check them out on instagram #envir492

@samoreno8 My most used emoji this week: 🥹 I don't think I've ever felt more stress and relief at the same time. I'm excited to actually take some time off after week 10! #envir492

Here's a friendly reminder to get outside despite the #envir492 chaos! I went to Deception Pass for the first time this weekend and it was a great way to decompress

@lyndslovesearth For what it's worth, I feel the same way. I feel like I'm not putting forth my best work right now since I'm beyond burnt out but we got this!! Remember to take time for yourself throughout each day and we'll get through it 😊 #envir492

Hey @frkearns! I've always been taught to keep emotions out of science, why do you think the use of emotions in science communication are important now more than ever? #envir492
