Had a great time at the @WCUChancellor Brunch and Alumni Awards during Homecoming. Always good to hear alumni stories, particularly those distinguished alums from our college! @WCU @AlumniWcu

Good to see this story publicized as a @WCU partnership with Haywood waterways and Tuscola High School. Not great to see microplastics in upstream areas. https://t.co/pkr5v94ikW

Had great talks last night at the CAS research event. Both Dr. Maria Gainey (repressor genes in bacteriophage viruses) and Dr. Luiz Lima Da Silveira (morphology of dark fireflies) brought their enthusiasm and joy for their work to these talks! We are fortunate they are @WCU

Congratulations to Brenda Mills, the new Director of Equity and Inclusion for @CityofAsheville!

I had the good fortune to have Brenda in my classes a number of years ago--she was, and is, a brilliant, dedicated, kind, and engaging public servant.
