Tristin Pratt MS Defense - May 5th

Tristin Pratt - MS Defense Announcement Municipal Landfill Leachate Inorganic Analysis Focusing on Detecting Valuable Metals Major Professor: Dr. Inez Hua Friday, May 5th at 1:00 PM Zoom<https://bit.ly/41wqkFJ> Ecological Sciences and Engineering Interdisciplinary Graduate Program Division of Environmental and Ecological Engineering Abstract: Recent research suggests that waste electronics thrown away by consumers could amount to $37.5M of potentially recoverable metals in single landfill. Rare and useful metals may have a large variance in presence from one landfill to another depending on factors such as age and waste management policies. The EPA in 2018 reports that 2.51 million tons of nonferrous metals are generated in MSW landfills, which could contain ample opportunity for recovering metals of high economic value. The nonferrous waste metals include waste consumer electronic devices disposed to landfills, which contain critically important and rare metals. A method to completely dissolve and analyze pumped landfill leachate resulted in quantifiable and positive detections of Platinum, (Post-) Transition, and Lanthanide group metals in the landfill leachates. Everyone is welcome! Attached is the defense announcement.

FW: You're invited: Institute on Teaching Social Action

I shared this with the students but may be more appropriate for faculty (and teaching staff) From: Ese-student-list <ese-student-list-bounces(a)ecn.purdue.edu> On Behalf Of Lee, Linda S Sent: Wednesday, June 5, 2024 1:18 PM To: Ese-student-list(a)ecn.purdue.edu Subject: ese-student-list FW: You're invited: Institute on Teaching Social Action FYI [https://mcusercontent.com/8b934608a2e7517ab5c3bfbd9/images/458e56fa-b26f-55…] Dear colleagues, On behalf of the NSS Conference Planning Committee, I hope you've had the chance to scan the conference preliminary program<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…>, highlighted sessions<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…>, and workshop opportunities<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…> associated with the NSS Conference. If you haven't registered<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…> yet, note that early bird pricing ends June 15! I also want to personally invite you to the Seattle Institute on Teaching Social Action<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…> on Sept 8-9, 2024, which is a pre-conference event for the National Society of Sustainability Conference. I have personally gone through the Institute and found it incredibly helpful in developing a social action course, that I then taught at the University of Michigan the following semester. Teaching social action has been one of the highlights of my career, as it provides students with concrete tools with which to organize social action campaigns and actions for undertaking social action for change. I highly recommend it! Please share this opportunity with faculty and staff colleagues at your institution and beyond. It really is a fantastic, generative opportunity. If you have any questions, please reach out. Arun Agrawal School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) University of Michigan [https://mcusercontent.com/8b934608a2e7517ab5c3bfbd9/images/96315e7b-c568-bb…] The Seattle Institute on Teaching Social Action<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…> (Sept 8-9, 2024) introduces faculty and staff to an experiential learning approach for incorporating social action campaigns into either a semester-long course or co-curricular workshop series. It is designed to give instructors the tools and knowledge to implement social action in their own courses (current or new). Social action is a transformative experiential learning model where students in a course launch their own campaign or join a community organization's campaign, and create a "student-wing". The students' social action campaigns seek to change a rule, regulation, norm, policy, or practice of an institution, on campus or in the community. This social action model requires teachers to devote about one-half of the time to the social action campaigns (e.g., to explore issue development, building power, tactics, and campaign implementation). Generally, the course reading is also reduced so that the 1.5 hours per week that students devote to their campaign work is not burdensome. Over the past year, faculty and staff have created over 25 courses<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…> using social action. To apply for the Fall Institute on Teaching Social Action, click here<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…>. Space is limited! If you are accepted, there is a $60 fee to cover room and food costs. The training, which will be led by Dr. Scott Myers-Lipton<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…>, Director of the Teaching Social Action Initiative<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fumsusdev.…>, will run from 9am - 5:30pm on the 7th of September, and 9am - 12:30pm on the 8th of September.
