WABI covers stormwater management institute for high schoolers
WABI (Channel 5) reported on the University of Maine’s Stormwater Management Research Team (SMART) Institute for high school students and their teachers. From June 26–29, participants in the program will work with university faculty, students and others to create environmental solutions to stormwater management. “I thought it would be interesting to learn about the stormwater and kind of how I can help my community in different ways,” said Chantel Dulac, a senior from Lewiston. Mohamad Musavi, SMART director and associate dean of the College of Engineering at UMaine, told WABI that the institute is training the students and providing the tools they will need to continue to conduct related experiments throughout the academic year. WVII (Channel 7) also reported on the program.
