I need to cancel. This just has not been a good month to try to have people over. I will work on a date this summer for a get together at my house, meanwhile, Christal may work with the GSO to see if there is a spring activity that would work for at least the students this month.

Time change for AGRY 544
by Lee, Linda S 02 May '17

02 May '17

AGRY 544 will be taught MWF at 12:30-1:20 instead of at 11:30 am as it was originally offered. A new CRN # had to be created for the 12:30 offering. You will need to add this new offering to your schedule if you would still like to take the course. AGRY 544 MWF 12:30-1:20 CRN # 20055 TEXT: "Environmental Organic Chemistry" R.P. Schwarzenbach, P.M. Gschwend, and D. M. Imboden 3rd edition, 2016. Wiley-Interscience. Other materials: Approximately 20% of the material presented in this course may be derived from other materials which will be provided as needed in class, placed on Blackboard or on reserve in the Lilly Life Science Library. Course Expectations: You are expected to turn in your assignments in a timely manner; abuse of grace time may result in a grade deduction for that assignment. You are expected to come to class prepared especially when assignments are followed up with in-class activities. You are expected to be an active participant in class and within your designated group during group activities. Course Objective: Learn the fundamental properties and processes responsible for the environmental fate of organic contaminants in aqueous and nonaqueous-phase liquids (e.g., fuels, chlorinated solvents, industrial and manufacturing residuals), and soils. Both conceptual and theoretical aspects will be covered as well as estimation, correlation, and measurement techniques. Intended Audience: Designed as an advanced course for students in any field of environmental science where understanding and predicting the environmental fate of organic chemicals is desired.

Seminar Speaker Today - Dr. Kelsey Pieper
by Musser, Christal A. 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

Reminder - Monday, April 24, 2017 3:30 p.m. Dean's Auditorium Refreshments at 3:15 p. m. [cid:image003.jpg@01D2BCDC.D1D5C340]Access to safe potable water in the US: infrastructure inequality and environmental injustice Kelsey J. Pieper, PhD USDA NIFA Fellow Civil and Environmental Engineering Virginia Tech In April 2014, the officials in the City of Flint, Michigan stopped purchasing treated water from Detroit and instead treated water from the Flint River. Within months of the switch, residents began reporting water quality issues, the utility issued boil warnings, and water main breaks were occurring throughout the city. Concerned citizens discovered that corrosion control had not been implemented by the city and lead was leaching into their water. Thanks to these concerned citizens, Dr. Marc Edwards, and a group of Virginia Tech students were informed about the water issues and created the Flint Water Study to support Flint citizens by empowering them with sound science and independent information about their tap water. Through this collaborative research, the corrosion problems in Flint were uncovered and the city began purchasing the Detroit water again in October 2015.
