Hi, interns. I know being a Field Station intern has been a different experience for you. What did you forget to pack that, once you knew more about the Field Station, you had to go out and purchase? Post also any tips you have for future interns that will them be successful at the Field Station.
Thanks,

What would you say to DOE, USDA and WalMart?
Hi, Interns:
As you know, WalMart favored our program by funding a grant proposal I submitted through SCSU. One of the initiatives to be funded by the grant is a research experience for undergraduates. Next summer, a select group of former interns will be awarded a research internship to conduct 8-10 weeks of research under a faculty member. More details later.
DOE and USDA/NRCS has funded our program since its inception. You have DOE to thank for providing your support this summer. USDA/NRCS has provided financial support in the past and continues to provide in-kind (service of employees, for instance) support as well.
What I want to know is, if you had a chance to speak with either our current funder, DOE, our in-kind funder, USDA/NRCS or a WalMart representative, what would you tell them?

How do we stay in touch?
Hi, Interns:
I would like to keep in touch with you in upcoming years to inform you of scholarships, job openings, and perhaps get an update on where you are and what you are doing. Do you think that would be possible? If so, what is the best way to remain in contact with you?

The Field Station is ...
Hi, interns. I often am asked to describe what the Field Station is ... you know ... meaning how I would describe the Field Station. Well, I need help. Can you tell me how you describe the Field Station to your peers? Please complete the sentence: "The Field Station is ..." Thank you in advance.

What are your take-aways?
Interns:
There is one week left in session one. I would like you to take a moment and think about your experiences at the Field Station. Tell what new skills, knowledge and/or experiences you have gained.
